God bless Matt Christman.
Do we know if he might make a full recovery? I’m so glad he can appear in public!
This is the first time I’ve heard Matt Christman speak since he had the stroke last year. He read a political poem at the live show, but the video cuts off before the poem.
It sounds like still needs a script to speak, but he sounds good
Being able to see the letters, process them and connect them to the right speech sounds is very good.
This site has some simulations of aphasia to put it into context

Very interesting site. A lot of the descriptions about terms becoming incorrectly “associated” (the example I got was the word “hammer” conjuring the image of a screwdriver) sounds a lot like schizophrenia symptoms, but apparently they have very different mechanisms.
Really makes me feel bad for Matt, anyone who rants often is someone who thinks in paragraphs, so the aphasia must really be frustrating. Glad to see he’s doing better
Anyone have his poem? I wanna read it!
I’d love to see the whole thing. Does anyone at least have a longer video?
Lies, that’s clearly the real Santa
We love our jolly red mad adult son
the biggest bestest chapo the best boy we looove him don’t we folks?
ah man i didn’t know he was in a wheelchair :/
he had a stroke and he was suffering from chronic back pain before that. honestly having the energy to do a live show by this point is a great sign.
I know he had a stroke but I did not know that it was and is still so physically debilitating
iirc, he was already walking with a cane before the strike
Modern Lenin
so good to see our large adult son doing well!
Our beautiful red large adult son
Does anyone have the text of the poem?
He looks and sounds good, the big red jolly boy.
Oh wow. She’s so pretty now!
e: Chat, I have been informed that Matt is actually the fella in the wheelchair. The woman in red is Amber.
Wrong Amber
Amber.
Amber.
Amber.
Wait, are we scabbing for a bot?
Did someone kill the amber bot?
