Hey Folks, This is just a note to let you know whats going on with me physically. I have been ill for about 3 yrs now. I have 5 diseases running through my body and a matrix of Christ Consciousness surrounding me. One of the diseases is dystonia, Google it instead of me trying to explain it all. It is a motion disorder that started after the fibromyalgia of 5-6yrs got really bad. This dystonia is in the Parkinson's family which is what we thought I had . But that was ruled out when they discovered that it was dystonia. In short , I cannot control my body. It is in constant motion. My head, arms, hands and legs are where it really shows up. Even now I glide my hands across the keys while they are trembling. I am a sight to behold. I thought about it and then decided this morning that it was a go regarding telling you all. I have been having seizures for about three months now. On average about two a day. When I return to consciousness or present time Gregg is always there at my side. He cooks all the meals, does the chores and loves me with such devotion. I will be in the hospital in Boston for 5-7 days for observation in a padded bed, both sides up, a camera monitor on my bed 24/7 and the RN station can hear our conversations because they need to see or hear if I go into a seizure. I guess I talk a lot even then. Gregg comes with me and sleeps in a cot. I have to have someone in the room at all times. I go in 8/25-8/31. DATE CHANGE 9/2 TO 9/8 I miss doing my work, ministering and speaking the message that I am given, seeing my clients on Skype, and delivering the Liberty Experience Training, etc. But I know that this is all for good because there is nothing that is occurring for me that is not on Purpose. I need to go now and lie down. I'm glad I told you all. Please pray that I get bathroom privileges even though I will be covered in leads and wires. Dear God, Please help me. My body is speaking to me in languqages I don't understand. I fully accept that I am not supposed to know right now. Help me dig deeper into humility and remove the clutches of embarrasment. Bring Peace to my mind. I completely trust you God. If this is my process I humbly surrender, for you are my Life Lord. You are everywhere I look, every thing I hear. Thank you for sending me those incredibly beautiful teachers and thank you for allowing me to teach what I could. Thank You God for receiving me into your heart consciously. We have been through many transformations together my Friend of friends. Thank you for staying with me when it appeared that others could not. It was their job to deliver the message, and mine to make the changes within. I Love you so much. And I need you now to remove these diseases from my body, or give me the strenght to fully accept the constant motion of dystonia, and the fear of not knowing when the Epilepsy will show itself through seizures. I declare from the very heart of God in which I dwell that my word go forth and shall not return to me void, for God is my Life and His will for me is perfect happiness. I accept His will with full and loving thanks. From the Lord God of my Being, So Be It. Amen
I Declare that I AM. And who I AM is free of disease, regardless of the evidence, For I AM a RADIANT LIGHT, and I AM FREE . . . Blissings, Matt | | | | | | | |

March 10, 2010 Dear Friends, Again, please excuse my tardiness in writing to you since my last update in December. A lot has occurred since then. Since this past January I’ve been in the emergency room and hospital five times due to complications and pain. As most of you know this has been an extraordinarily challenging time for me. I haven’t been able to work and be in service since April 2008. The good news is I’ve finally found a specialist that has changed my medications. She said, “You’ve been on the wrong medications for the past three years.” And she was right. Once I changed the medications I am feeling a lot better. It still has been a slow process in healing. I continue to have acupuncture once a week and physical therapy two times a week. The physical therapy helps to build my strength and helps with my balance since I’m dizzy most of the time and it’s easy to fall. I’m glad we made the move to Cape Cod. We live surrounded by the pine trees I would talk about in the trainings. I was young and rambunctious then and I loved the aroma. Now I am 57 and I cannot remember when I arrived here since I was so sedated, yet the aroma has now settled in and is doing it's magic. Here on the Cape I feel happy, loved, and actually held in the hands of God. 21 months ago "Friends of Matt" began and people sent money, their treasure, what they work for everyday: people who have money, people who have very little, people on a fixed income: people in all kinds of positions and circumstances gave. People also sent their prayers and healing thoughts and energy. For me it was three steps forward and sometimes two steps back. When friends of Matt began we had no idea that this would be such a long haul. Don't get me wrong, I am doing better and better every day. The other night I was looking at the stars and I realized how long it had been since "Friends of Matt" began. Gregg and I talked and made the decision that it was time for you to be released from your agreements or however you would put it. If you find it in your means or heart to continue to contribute please know that your past contribution and any further contribution makes a discernible difference. I want to teach again, counsel again and see you all again. I don't know when that will be, but I do know that during the yearlong course we traveled into the soul. I hear stories about where people are in their lives and I either remind them, or simply acknowledge inside me that we opened that up during the course. This journey into the soul, letting go, not having to know, brought me through years and lifetimes of unloved clusters of beliefs and sorrows. And as my body recovers I feel the presence of all of you from 1986-to now, the ministry, the trainings and all of the people whom God trusted me with. How blessed I am. Some people opened up physically and burst forth with energy. Some are being freed still by telling the truth. I am being freed by my desire to remove the blocks to Loves Presence. Well, time to go. Again, I love you! Thank you all so, so very much. We could not done all of this without your love and supportive action. Go and find your new teachers. Email me once in a while and tell me of your new learning’s and the unfolding of the joy in your hearts, your daily miracles, and your service to humanity . . . Thank you so much for everything. Blissings, Matt |

December 3, 2009 Hello Everyone,
I apologize for the delay in writing.
Today is my Birthday and when I considered whom I wanted to spend it with you all came into my consciousness. I simply want to let you know that you are alive within me and you all dwell in a place in my heart that is protected by Angels and Beings that tower over us and walk with us and have their full attention on our well-being.
Susan Boyle is singing “How Great Thou Art” in the background, how fabulous is that? I am so full of Love right now. It is overflowing and I send it freely into God to be used wherever it is needed. If you could use some then open your heart and invite it in!!!!!!!!!
As for an update on my health which I know is simply a new and wonderful process, (all sickness is a healing in progress) whose only purpose is for me to daily surrender more deeply into more of God, Beauty, Aliveness, Heart, and Appreciation.
As for this wonderful body of mine that allows me to touch, hear, see, taste, feel, smell and experience you, it is growing stronger and stronger. I am in physical therapy twice a week, acupuncture every two weeks and massage on the two weeks between acupuncture. I have two doctors in Boston, a Neurologist for the Parkinson’s and another for HIV. Here in Provincetown I have a general MD. All of them are connected by computer which is great. We are all working together. Next is finding a top MD for my liver.
As for me the body tremors come and go. I have had a few occasions when I haven’t recognized anyone but they only last about five to ten minutes. Then I hear Gregg’s voice in the distance and slowly everything comes back into focus. He is an Angel.
Gregg and Joey Bongiovanni (my best friend who lives here also) attend a caregivers support group. They are both taking excellent care of me.
As for walking, on a good day I do not need assistance. However sometimes my right foot and leg involuntarily swings in front of my left and gets stuck there. But here’s the great part . . . Yesterday I thought F**k it! I am walking to the Doctors and I did . . . Yipppppeeeee.
I took my cane and I walked a mile. It took me 30 minutes but I did it. I noticed Joey in his jeep a few times watching out for me (I get very short of breath and he and Gregg were afraid I might fall over) but Ha, Ha, I made it . . .
I have a hunch that God and the Angels were walking me. That is why Susan Boyle singing “How great thou art” in the background as I write this message, fills me up and releases the tears that fall from my eyes . . . God is the strength that carries me. . . God is the strength in which I forgive . . . God is who taught me to Love . . . and God is who brought everyone of you into my life and heart.
“How Great Thou Art”.
I am truly blessed. . . Happy Birthday to me . . . I Love you all . . . You have been my greatest gift.
Thank you for all your Love.
Blissings, Matt |

UPDATE FROM MATT GARRIGAN August 24, 2009 Hello, Today is the first day I have opened my computer since moving to Provincetown, MA where miles of healing sand dunes meet the power of the ocean. I am sitting here in our new surroundings looking out at my favorite pinecone trees and taking in their healing aroma. I remember talking about them over the years in many of the trainings and now their healing scent is once again wafting through the air reminding me that we are all still very young and at play in the universe. In God we are healed, whole and alive regardless of the evidence. That’s my story and I am sticking to it . . . Gregg and I celebrated our 11th anniversary this month. It’s amazing how fast the eleven years have passed by . . . we have shared a lot of wonderful times together. The past two years have been very challenging for both of us. We moved into our new home July 1st. We are so happy we decided to move. Provincetown is a magical, healing and relaxing place for us. We have almost finished unpacking all of the boxes. We are settling in and it’s starting to feel like home. Gregg and I are grateful for those of you that helped with packing and moving us. We couldn’t have done it without you. It was a lot of work and we thank you very much. You are like angels to us sent straight from the Godhead to pave the way. We moved to Provincetown for many reasons: To spend more time with family & friends, which we have been doing, and to rest and heal. Also we needed to reduce living and health expenses since Gregg’s income, my SSI and donations were not covering our monthly expenses. By moving we have reduced our expenses by almost 40%, which has been very helpful in relieving the additional financial burden incurred due to my illnesses, Parkinson’s being the most difficult and my needing the most help in moving around because of it. The night we arrived in Provincetown I fell and broke my hand while getting out of the jeep. This is where a sense of humor is a must!!! Gregg teases me and says that I didn’t want to lift and unpack any boxes. But the truth is I sometimes have no control over my body movements. This can be funny at home however it can also be humiliating when out in a crowd. My right leg involuntary swings in front of my left leg and down I go reminding myself that humiliation is simply a point of view . . . There has been no real change in my health. The medical staff and Gregg and I are working on different cycles of medications, the side effects can be difficult but I am determined. The hardest is the memory loss. I can remember being so clear during trainings and Sunday Celebrations, now my short and long-term memory often elude me. Yet the still peaceful voice within continues to guide me and holds me in its loving embrace and repeats in my being, “I have more for you to do” I have met my new doctors and they agree the first priority is to improve my quality of life by managing my Parkinson’s symptoms and increasing my energy so I don’t sleep most of the day. They agree that I will someday be able to do my work again. “Friends of Matt” was originally setup to assist me in covering expenses during the yearlong interferon treatment. Since I was unable to complete the treatment due to near death complications, the donations were used to help pay for my personal health and living expenses. Once again the angels showed up and demonstrated the power to create through God the financial contributions that have helped so much. For those that have contributed to Friends of Matt we are eternally grateful. Your contributions have been crucial in helping to pay for my necessities and health care during the past 15 months. Friends of Matt raised a significant amount of money to cover most of my necessities. A few of you agreed to donate for the year and have completed your agreement. Gregg and I are grateful for your support and Thank You!!! For those that are continuing to donate we appreciate it. Our gratitude is immense and reminds us of how interconnected we are and how God works through us all when we are happy and willing to let go and to give the glory of our eternal ability to create to Him where all things are possible. Gregg has been working hard to setup our life so I won’t need to rely on donations to survive. However, we are not at that place yet and any and all donations are humbly welcome through Friends of Matt. I am hoping to be able to do a few phone sessions as we work on the right cycle of meds . . . Hmmmm, sessions on morphine and Percocet . . .now that something to sign up for . . . You are all in my thoughts and I miss you all very, very much. May you always be consciously aware of the Ascended Masters Love for you and the mantle of light surrounding you, as They show you the way and the truth of the path you are on.

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

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 |
