Matt Johnston's dive manual
My dive team and I have compiled a dive manual, Manual for Ventilator Dependent Quadriplegic Diving, as the blueprint for others to dive while ventilator dependent.
The manual is available at Ocean Opportunity Bookstore - Lulu.com

The forward is by my friend, John Chatterton.

The manual is also available on Matthew Johnston : Diving a Dream

Thanks for your continued support!

Congratulations Matt. You have always been a regular contributor to YD and also an inspiration to what someone with drive and determination can achieve. You are the living mantra that ANYTHING is possible.

Keep going and post more pics!!!

Matt

I never fail to be impressed and humbled* by what you have achieved.

Snash

* I think "humbled" has become one of the most overused and therefore devalued words we have; but with what you have done I believe it is totally appropriate. Keep it up, dude!

Hi Matt, we haven't heard from you in a while. It's excellent that you got the grant.

There are quite a lot of new people on YD who haven't heard of your story.

This is really interesting, pioneering stuff for anyone who is interested

Nice to hear from you all. Glad you all think the manual is good. It was a lot of work. Like always, you give me lots of support. You all have such nice things to say. Don't worry. I am not going to stop. I've got a few dives planned for the summer. I'll try to write more to keep you informed. I'll try to post some more pics, too.

Sincerely,

Matt

Hey Lou, Thank you for the nice words. I am far from being done with my dreams that's for sure.
