UPDATE FROM MATT GARRIGAN June 8, 2009
Dear Friends,
I have some news that I thought needed to be shared.
On Wednesday June 17th, Gregg and I will be moving across the country to Cape Cod to be closer to my family.
I have been living in San Francisco for 37 years and 22 for Gregg. My dreams and meditations have strongly advised that due to my health it’s time for me to be around my family and of course the healing nature of Cape Cod where I spent my childhood summers. Since we made the decision to move, everything has fallen into place; but those are stories for another time.
My health goes up and down and it is very important that I follow my inner teacher(s).
The Parkinson's is sometimes in control and sometimes not. When it is not it is not a pretty picture.
This is a letter of thanks for being in service all these years.
I would like to leave you with something profound but my body is trembling. In fact I need to close this up because I am having a difficult time typing.
I am sorry it is so short a letter but for now, it is enough.
Once we get settled I hope I will be able to begin phone sessions again.
All My Love To You . . .
Blissings, Matt & Gregg
Our new mailing address for: LifeForce, Matt Garrigan, Gregg Peterson and Friends of Matt is: PO Box 555 Provincetown, Ma 02657 Phone: 415-377-4032 (Office)

April 13, 2009 I hope this finds you feeling vital and alive.
I apologize for the lapse in communication. I have been stalling in my communications with you all because of the nature of it. Even now while I am writing I find myself wanting to stop.
I have been Diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. I have gotten second opinions and they are all the same.
I am trying different medications to control the trembling and shaking. Even keeping my fingers on the keys to the computer is a task. I Love my body and I know in my soul that something good will come out of this, but for now I need to allow the process to occur and know that it does not define me.
Gregg has been as always a true and mighty angel, man, partner and inspiration. He is working from 9am to 11pm almost every day and still finds the time to get things done. He's a miracle.
I want to thank all of you for your emails and cards. They mean a great deal to me. And for those of you who have found it in your heart to contribute monetarily, I want you to know that you have literally made it possible for us to squeeze by each month.
The doctors and I are working to get the physical symptoms to ease up in order for me to begin seeing clients again. That may or may not happen. It would be difficult to see clients while I am not in control of my body. But right now it would be out of the question short of a miracle, and you all know I am open for that.
So as my body trembles and my right foot swings in front of my left foot and trips me without warning, I still declare that: "I AM, AND WHO I AM IS THE POTENTIAL AND FULFILLMENT OF BEING STRONG IN SPIRIT AND HEALED IN MY HEART AND BODY REGARDLESS OF THE EVIDENCE".
I Love you all very much . . . I miss my clients immensely.
Blissings, Matt |

December 4,
Hi,
Last week was Thanksgiving, yesterday was my birthday and the holidays are here. I really get how the Holidays are an energy. I am learning so many lessons. Feeling like I am flunking most of them .....you know, like stop resisting....which just sends me deeper into resistance . Yet still I am learning. and practicing ways back into the light.
In my acupuncture session this week the whole room burst into white light with only the acupuncturist and me in physical form. It was right after my third eye opened. Two archangel's appeared and told me to hold on, and that I am going through this for a purpose beyond what I can know right now, but I will soon know. They told me that I need to trust them more when it gets overly emotional for me. (There are days when the monotony and deep sadness take over and I just go with it and cry and allow the energy to work through me.) At first it feels like I have lost myself completely, like I am the hopelessness but as it passes through I realize I am on a journey and it is seeming more purposeful.
Physically my goal is to begin to walk to the end of the driveway. Wish me luck . The acupuncture is helping the body tremors and I am very grateful for that. Still sleeping a lot though.
I miss you all so much. Once every day I go into my office and sit in my chair and do a 10-minute pretend session with a client. I sit and say to a client I pretend is on the sofa, "So, how’s your week been etc. etc.". I really miss my clients. But hopefully you have found someone else to assist you and you are all doing well. After all, that is the objective. So I leave my clients from over the years with these words of wisdom..."Don't screw up!!!"
I love you all . . . your messages to me on friends of Matt lift me up. I check them every day . . .
Be Healthy. Be Honest. Be Mischievous. And most of all know that the Divine Spark of Love and Light is shining through you and It loves you more than your human mind can know.
Blissings, Matt |

Hello Everyone,
There isn't enough love in the whole world to convey how much your letters and emails mean to me. Just that you all think of me and take the time to write. I feel very loved, very fortunate and very cared about.
I am sleeping about 16-18 hours a day. The Dr's think that that is appropriate and will begin to change soon. (I hope they don't mean 24 hrs a day). Anyway 16 hrs a day of sleeping, then 3 hrs in makeup, hair, and nails doesn't leave much time to pick out an outfit, much less keep up with fan mail. Hey....maybe I'm not tired because of disease. Maybe I'm exhausted simply because I'm being me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Went to see the Doc last week. As you know I cannot do the treatment. However, in the months I was doing it my T-cells went up to 1259 (This is good. The highest they have been in 20 years) and there was no change in my HIV viral load (still non detectable). MY HepC viral load went up but that was to be expected with the two hospitalizations (July and September) and stopping the treatment.
So, it has been long enough and all the paperwork is in progress for me to begin seeing some new specialists up at UCSF. Their Dr's are in touch with my Dr. etc......We are going for the gusto kids. Enough is enough. Anything is possible....anything.......that is the essence of faith.
Sometimes when I am feeling down I just think "wow" somewhere in the universe there is a fabulous me that is back to normal and my agreement that I AM THAT is its structure for fulfillment on this dimension. Then I realize it's on its way to me.
I really miss my clients. The other day I went in and sat in my office and before I knew it I was crying thinking of all of those years of deep sharing and silly laughter and remarkable breakthrough. I guess I miss being with everyone. So when I get sad I just remember God has me in the palm of her hands and I remember precisely the day I made my conscious choice to hand my life and will over to the care of God as I knew IT, and I remember that Life is never over....never.........
I really do miss everyone. If those walls could talk.
And thanks to everyone who made it to the healing circle. It was very powerful for me. Ross my teacher was here and led it and as always it is a Divine moment when I am the focus of his work. 28 years ago He woke me from the darkness and gave me my life back and he has never stopped. The thousands who have benefited from me have done so because of him.
And to everyone....I Love You....I Do. I am so blessed to be able to feel this much love for community, friends and clients. No matter what happens, however it ends or whatever comes next, I can say "I Loved Them All, the Best I Could, even when I didn't know how". Now thats pretty cool to be able to say . . .
I LOVE YOU TONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Blissings, Matt |

September 22, Hello, This update is Long over due. The month of Septmeber is flying by. The month began with Matt ending up in the hospital again for a week. Matt was having difficulty breathing among other syptoms. So they treated him for a week. He has been doing better since he returned home. He's sleeping about 16 hours a day and He's VERY Bored. The problem is he doens't have the energy to do much. Sometimes just walking into the kitchen will be exhausting to him. Matt misses his clients, friends and of course empowering those around him. We are very optimistic however. We have made some changes to Matt's diet and are continiuing to try new ideas that will help him increase his energy and get him well again :) Blessings to you and we hope things are going well for you! Thank you for all of your love,prayers and suport. |

August 26, 2008 Hello, I want to thank those of you who attended the Prayer and Healing Gathering last Sunday. And please know that even though I could not always keep my eyes open or focused on you when you spoke, I knew you and I felt your tremendous capacity to love. To be the focus of that was overwhelming. Sometimes I feel that I am not doing enough. My mind tells me that I am making all of this being ill up. This conversation usually occurs when I need to rest after I have pushed myself, or when my body is telling me to rest and my head tells me the opposite. This kind of conversation occurring in regards to whether or not to buy a car and carry the payments has a different quality of experience than when ones life is at stake and the decisions I have to make in fact have a direct impact on my immediate life or death. The life or death choices deliver me to another dimension, strata, paradigm or field in which the choices are made. Yet let me be clear here that I am, have been, and will always be responsible for the choice and the circumstance. The question is what strata, what field of possibility do I ground myself into and do I even need to establish myself in any one in particular. Which do I operate from for this situation at hand? One? Many? All? I don't know. What I do know is that God is full and complete everywhere, on all levels, operating at, in, as, and from the same wisdom power, caring and guidance. But sometimes Gregg and I get so very confused. I flunked the traditional AMA routine. My body rejected that within 5 to six weeks putting me in the hospital twice The Dr's. agree that my body cannot withstand the 42 week treatment so it is no longer an option. So here Gregg and I are with no idea where I am heading yet knowing that God in me is in charge. Non traditional medicine not covered by insurance, looks like it leaves us few options. Yet I know we were created from, live in and loved by, the unlimited loving Grace of God Almighty. This is our guiding Source. If I am no longer needed to serve in this body I will serve without it. My life and body is and has always been God's. It is just that I just got it this lifetime. And man when I got it I opened it up and let it free to flow through me. As you can probably imagine every hour is different emotionally here at home. Gregg always brings me back to prayer when the pain is bad or my thinking is difficult through forgetfulness and short term memory loss. and short term memory loss. term memory loss. memory loss. memory................................ My Sister reminds me that at times persevering in self care and self love is more important than producing, and that Being is more important than doing. And in that I find the peace and permission to be lost and tired and to sometimes feel somewhat willing to give up. And that is when Gregg and I pray. With our arms around each other Gregg speaks his words into the ethers and I am usually a lump of human stuff in his arms. Please join Gregg and I now in a prayer: Dear God, we are lost, we are frightened, this is beyond our expertise, medicines are not working, what we know seems powerless regarding this dis-ease. In our little mind we want to believe that it is the wrong time and the wrong circumstances but we know we have You, and that You know. Only You can manage this for us. We give this whole situation, everyone involved in it, its causes and all of its effects over to you. Please Lord of Mighty Love, Strength and Eternal Protection, Wisdom and Care, take this from us. Great Sweet Potent Impenetrable Mother if our fists are holding on tight to this then do for us what we cannot do for ourselves and open our hands for us and set free the dis-ease into Your Eternal Unconditional Love. Let it come home to you Lord/Mother where its misguided energy by my error in thinking will immediately enfold it in Its loving arms and give it a place to rest and a home of peace. Help me God, Help me Help You. It is already on its way to you. Thank You God. Amen Here is a prayer sent to the healing and Prayer Gathering by John Michael Blessed Michael, Archangel Guardian and Protector and blessed Raphael, Archangel Healer, please, along with the gathered forces of the angelic host, pay a healing visit to Matt NOW! We ask that during this time of need stay with him as long as is necessary to promote his health and wellness. Please help him lift his thoughts to those of faith and hope; help him, his family, loved ones, and friends reject fear and doubt, while infusing his body with the powerful healing energy of divine love and light which you command and project at will. We ask for your help with gratitude and appreciation as we accept your intervention with humility, and profound faith. Amen. So I will close now with a heart full of gratitude that God Is, I AM and WE Are Fully Alive in Paradise. We Are Radiant Lights and We Are Free!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Blissings, Matt Ps I love reading your messages to me………………..thanks for taking the time
