Who Dat Nation!

Well, Matt and I were interviewed today by Sandra Gonzalez from ABC 26 news. They spoke to us about the SAINTS season and how it has helped Matt to cope with his cancer. The interview will be shown on Saturday as part of their 2 hour pre-game show. Matt was very excited to say the least. When asked to predict a score he wrote, "I never predict a score, I think it is bad luck." When asked what he would tell the team before the game Matt wrote, "Kick some Cardinal Butt." Yep, Matt got his dad's sense of humor. For those who know me, you know that being in front of a camera was the last thing I wanted today. But, I did it for Matt.

Below you will see video of Matt playing the bongo drum with Mrs. Suzanne, his music therapist, singing her version of When the Saints Go Marching In.

  1. Matt I love the video, I really want to see the interview so tell your mom to record for me. i must say you brought tears to my eyes. But it is still great to you play the bongo. We just might see you playing for Pete Fountain's band or Rene in the Mardi Gras Parades. You never know.

  4. I wasn't able to catch the interview. I was wondering if you taped it and could post it somehow. I'd really like to see it.
