Val And Matt Have A Son Jaxen
Val and Matt live in Alberta with their young son Jaxen who has had a genetic disorder since childhood.
Matt and Val share a lot about their young son, who is diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder, SATB2 syndrome.
Jaxen suffered from a very young age. However, he has always been an inspiration to his mom. As quoted on Winnipegfreepress, Sweeting said she gained toughness from her son. Since fewer than 500 people worldwide have been diagnosed with the condition.
The curler said: “I’ve learned much about resilience from Jaxen. If anything, he is taught me way more than I’ve taught him.”
She also admires Jaxen’s patience as he cannot communicate properly. However, she still feels happy about the small things that her son has adapted in recent years. Jaxen recently learned to ride a bicycle.
Val has said: “It would be easy for him to get frustrated and give up on things when he can not communicate what he wants. But he was able to learn how to ride a bike last year. He took a couple of spills early, but he had pushed me away, got back up, and kept going,”
The curler has often stated that Jaxen and Matt spend most of their time together. Jaxen is in fifth grade at a school in St. Paul, and he likes to play hockey. When his mom is not around, Jaxen and Matt go fishing or Jet skiing.
