Taken From Matthew's Website made by his mommy Denise:
Even from the womb, Matthew taught us that things were going to be done his way and he was a fighter.
Matthew was due September 24, but on June 2 (at 23 weeks and 5 days gestation) Matthew decided to try and break through! My water broke and contractions began. I was hospitalized and spent 9 weeks in the hospital before Matthew said enough was enough and tried to escape butt first! On August 6 (7 weeks before his due date), Matthew was born by emergency cesarean. The same doctor who said he wouldn't make it was there to hear his first cry. After nearly 4 weeks in the NICU, Matthew came home on September 1.
Matthew is a Hebrew name meaning "Gift of God" and that he truly was.
Matthew blessed us on this earth for 70 days before falling victim to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. He is our beautiful angel and we will always miss him. We will keep his website up to remember him and honor him.While We were hoping for a lifetime of memories with him, I got his lifetime of memories with us.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When God calls little children to dwell with Him above, We mortals sometimes question the wisdom of His love. For no heartache compares with the death of one small child Who does so much to make our world seem wonderful and mild. Perhaps God tires of calling the aged to His fold, So He picks a little rosebud before it can grow old. God knows how much we need them, so He takes but a few To make the land of heaven more beautiful to view. Believing this is difficult, still, somehow we must try, The saddest word mankind knows will always be "goodbye". So when a little child departs, we who are left behind must relize God loves children... Angels are hard to find.
