Paralyzed teen Matt inspired by community hope project walk
Matt, an honor student paralyzed from the neck down by a pool accident, receives family support in Carlsbad as he trains at Project Walk. His mother Susan, a nurse, describes ongoing pain, breathing challenges, and a hopeful plan to regain function through intensive therapy, with insurance not covering costs. The family, previously in San Juan Capistrano and San Clemente, gathers donations and plans for continued treatment while Matt eyes San Diego State.
