Who is Matt Mike? Do you mean Mika?

 

I wish him well. 


Yes, it was a typo. I just fixed it. You knew who I meant by the rest of the message. And by the way this is the second thread I've started on his updated condition.

@RainCityWoman  thanks for update. the press has no interest in covering this story apparently.  last i heard he was not breathing on his own.  hope that that has changed. prayers up.


The article i found did not say, but since the family said he still communicates in writing, I am assuming that he is still on a respirator. i have heard constant coverage of Scalise and how he got the trophy from the Dems and how he is showing improvement in increments, but I've heard nothing on the condition of Mika. I had to search to find even this much.  Guess I'm not in front of the television the nano second they devote to him.

@RainCityWoman thank you so much for this thread as for me it has been difficult finding information on Matt's condition.  I am so glad to know he is on the mend albeit with an extended recovery period.  Continued prayers for him and his family.

I have heard next to nothing on Matt Mika's condition from the news and I have MSNBC on all the time. Thanks for the info and update.

I read on Roll Call that a GFM page has been startedfor his healthcare costs - raised over $40K so far,and his page also encourages people to donate to the GFM page for Officer Crystal Griner.

 

Mika’s family said in a statement over the weekend that his condition had improved and that they expect a “full recovery.” The statement said Mika was communicating with notes and signed the game ball for the annual congressional game. - See more at: http://www.rollcall.com/news/hoh/gofundme-page-to-support-lobbyist-matt-mika-raises-goal-to-50k#stha...

Today, I found a small article which said his designation had been raised from Critical to serious now.
