(MRP News) – It’s been three years since Waseca police officer and father of two Arik Matson was shot while on duty. He survived, but sustained severe injuries to his brain.
A new documentary follows Arik and his wife Megan Matson through the process of healing. It shows how the physical therapy was exhausting and frustrating at times, but Arik had an extra motivator. Hometown Hero Outdoors, a non-profit based in Stillwater, had promised to take him to the Bering Sea in Alaska.
Arik and Megan Matson joined MPR News host Cathy Wurzer to talk about the film and their family’s journey. CONTINUE
