Matt this is great news. I, like many, followed your progress on a daily basis. We were deeply worried for you, but your recovery was a text-book one. By that I mean that it was long and difficult, with ups and downs, but your efforts were ceaseless as were those of your family, friends and support staff. You hit milestones on a regular basis and our hope grew weekly.
To be honest, I did not know that you were not back at JRiver full-time until just recently. With your increased forum presence, I had assumed it was at least a few weeks ago. I know that all the difficulties are probably not over completely and there may still be 'before and after' differences. I hope the negative impact of those can be minimised. You've done a fantastic job, and your employer and colleagues impressed many of us throughout the ordeal with their conduct. I will be buying MC21+, even if 3D and native ATMOS decoding is never implemented, just to support these fine people.
Finally, Brooke deserves a medal! Her frequent updates for us on CaringBridge kept us all abreast of what was going on, despite how incredibly difficult it was to see you so impaired at times. I've been thinking that she should recompile all the entries she made into a single record of the whole experience. I would read it again, and I would even read it out aloud to my daughter when she's just a little older - to serve as an example of perfect humanity. You are a lucky husband and father, Matt.
