Child Poet Succumbs to Muscular Dystrophy

Celebrity Obituaries Forum

I am so saddened to hear of Matties death. This child was so pure and full of hope and love. Truly touched by God. I saw him on Oprah and on Larry King Live. He was so intelligent, charming, gracefull, and his poetry was beautiful. May he rest in peace. God surely has a new angel up in heaven.

I read this in the news yesterday....

Very Sad!

I feel so bad for the mom....she already had three kids die from this disease and has the adult disease herself.

I dont know how she has coped through all this...

My prayers go out to her!
