This Couple’s Life Completely Changed. What Happened Next Caught The Attention Of Hollywood!!

The Blog

The forum helped him to lighten the burden of sadness from his heart. Eventually, he decided to write on his personal blog on which he had earlier announced Madeline’s birth and Liz’s death. He expressed his feelings of spending life as a widower and a single parent in detail. Surprisingly, a blog on which he had started writing in order to just find some solace gained widespread attention. Now there were young widows and widowers who had formed a connection with Matt through the blog where they shared their feelings and asked for advice.

The Power of Community

Matt’s touching writing style had a key role in attracting other people on a daily basis to the blog. One could read about each and every detail of the time that Matt and Liz spent together in the blog and his lifestyle after losing her. People developed a connection with his tragic story and visited his blog regularly. One can get an idea of the popularity of the blog from the fact that it saw 50,000 visitors daily. He had come up with the best solution to deal with a tragedy such as his, but this wasn’t the end.

The Response

Anyone who read the blog even once was aware of the pain and problem that Matt had to face while taking care of his daughter without his wife. Luckily, he was being advised by young mothers and plenty of people on even the slightest of parenting issues that he faced with the help of his blog. It was enough for Matt to realize that people really cared for him. But, this was just the initiation of the overwhelming response he received.

A Chain Reaction

Apart from advice and well wishes, the blog also paved the way for people to send all kinds of things which in turn would help in raising Madeline. Diaper bags, nail clippers, hair clips and formula dividers are a few among the large number of daily use things that he received. This helped him a lot in properly taking care and raising his daughter as Maddy’s grandparents lived 1,500 miles away from Los Angeles.

A Love Letter

It was unintentional but the blog was slowly turning into kind of a letter that Madeline could read and understand what his father went through when she was small.“In many ways, it’s a love letter to Madeline and to Liz. Liz will never read it, of course, I want Madeline to know that her dad didn’t just curl up in a ball and start drinking heavily. I want her to know I was out there, doing as much as I could for her, and trying to make her as happy as I could,” he stated in an interview with the Daily Mail in January 2013.

One Such Moment

Matt took Madeline to the Plaza Hotel in New York which was the place where he had spent his honeymoon with Liz. It came to as a surprise and divinely luck to Matt when it was there that his daughter learned to roll over for the first time. These things mattered a lot to Matt and he lived for them. Well, you will be astonished to know that it was not only the blog that came out as a blessing after the tragedy for Matt.
