Update November 25, 2006

We hope everyone had a happy and safe Thanksgiving holiday. We are thankful to all of you for your constant support.

Taylor has been actively communicating with Tammy by mouthing words. Tammy has become a great lip reader! Taylor has been asking for food and juice, which unfortunately she can't have. Although the doctors think that it is a great sign that she is requesting food. Taylor is getting to drink some water. Taylor has been asking a lot of questions about what has happened. Tammy has been talking to her about the accident and why she is in the hospital.

Now that Taylor is more alert and aware, the doctors and nurses are recommending that there only be one or two people in Taylor's room at a time. Taylor can now tell people what she wants, so she can communicate about who she wants in the room, if she wants to read a book or watch a movie.

Taylor -
Thank you so much for letting me visit you and your mommy this weekend...It was SO great to see how well you are doing and how hard you are working at telling everyone what you want. Hang in there and you will be able to eat one of Daddy Matt's deer burgers before you know it!

Tammy - Stay strong my friend. I am so in awe of your love and strength! You are truly my hero! Lots of love to all of you...see you soon.

Love -
Stacy Santa Ana

Taylor,
I have your picture on my wall in my bedroom, and I miss being in the "funny frog" class with you. I am praying for you to get better, and all of my family is too. I have made lots of pictures for you, and I will make sure they get to you soon. Is there a movie you do not have that you would like?
Love,

Taylor and Tammy,
I was excited to hear from Stacy that the physical therapy went well this morning. We have been praying for you every day. Tammy you are such a wonderful mother, and I know god is there watching over Taylor, and she is a fighter. She is very strong, I only got to know you from when Madison and Taylor were in preschool together, but anyone can see she gets her strength from you.
If there is anything we can do or send please let us know!
Love,
