Calvin College Matt's situation remains unchanged. His days now include decompression treatment, physical therapy and awaiting test results. Matt has been accepted by a specialist at the University of Miami Hospital and will be (or already has) been transferred from Mariner hospital in the Keys to Miami. Matthew and his family continue to wait, eager to see progress and thankful for the answered prayer of providing the specialist in Miami.
