Media Statement on Behalf of Matt Reum

The following has been released and requested to be shared by Memorial Hospital on behalf of Matt Reum.

Matt Reum wants to thank everyone for the outpouring of support and all the well wishes, including the good Samaritans who found him, the first responders and his caregivers at Memorial Hospital. He remains in critical condition at this time. He has asked not only for time to process everything that he has endured since last Wednesday, but also for time to rest and heal. Matt knows he has a story to tell, and when he is ready, he plans to share details of that experience. Until then, Matt has asked us to share this message, while also requesting privacy during this time for himself, his family and friends. He adds, “No matter how tough things get, there is a light at the end of the tunnel, sometimes in the least expected way.”

All media inquiries should be directed to Heidi Prescott at hprescott@beaconhealthsystem.org.
