New heart.......


New outlook.....


New car......


1st race!!.....


Bank holiday Monday saw the new, revitalised "Matt" do his

first race, with the new ticker! Ticker and driver did well (3rd place!)

Considering it's been 10?years since I drove competatively, I did

ok, and held my own I think? Was exhausted by the end of the

day, and a bit sore from the G forces etc, but "no pain no gain"?!


Back to QEH in Sept, so hopefully no damage done??!  ;-)

Fabulous!

Great to see those stickers being put to good use... ;o)

You've done fantastically well to reach this point - a very proud moment I'm sure!

About Matt.

My name's Matt. I was born with a congenital heart defect which hampered me in my youth, and sadly became a terminal conditon recently, and beyond the (amazing) care of the BRI-Bristol Heart team.

In 2008, my condition deteriorated, to a point I was happy to see Xmas 2008. I had prepared to die.

Then in January 2009, a late night phone call from QEH-Hospital Birmingham changed my world, when they offered me a heart transplant, if I could get there pronto!!

6 months on, after a rocky start, I am still alive, thanks to them!

Read on to see how my new life is taking shape, and my adventures to date!....

 

Matt.
