Taylor had a fun day today with her Mom and Aunt Melissa. Taylor had spa day; Melissa painted her fingernails and toenails. Taylor had a nice visit yesterday with her neighbors in Chico, Don and Judy. She keeps talking about her friends in Chico and how much see misses them. It means a lot to her when see hears from all of her friends. Thanks to all who continue to send messages!
The doctors have said that Taylor's wounds from the surgery are healing well. They hope to change out Taylor's tracheotomy this week to something smaller so that she can more easily talk. At the end of this week or the beginning of next week the doctors plan to begin weaning Taylor off of the ventilator. It will take a while before she is breathing without the ventilator, but we are looking forward to starting the process.
A fundraiser for Taylor will be held at Fit One Athletic Club this Saturday, January 20th from 10:00 am - 3:00 pm. There will be activities for the kids, including, dodge ball, Kids Carnival, games, and a bounce house. They will have an auction for prizes, including, WWW and Boot Camp classes, Karate lessons, GTS, PT, and Carwashes. The event is also sponsored by Jamba Juice, Great Harvest Bread, Scrubbs, East Ave Community Church and Printed Image & Costco. Additional information can be found on the side bar of the front page of this blog.

Good morning Taylor! It was really great to read an update on you! It sounds like things are moving right along for you. I bet your nails are very pretty! I couldn't agree more with your Aunt Lissy....You are a very brave and strong girl! She couldn't have a better neice than YOU! We all are so proud of you. Travis talks about you daily and really wants to see you and give you a BIG hug! We are still planning to come see you real soon. Probably towards the end of this month. I will call your Mommy when we do come up that way. We can't wait to see you Sweetie.
Until then we send lots of love to you and your family!
Always in my thoughts,
Kim (Travis's Mom)
Hi Taylor,
My mom only lets me get my toe nails painted. I keep telling her that I want my finger nails painted too, so I can be like Taylor. She keeps telling me that as soon as I'm as old and brave as you are then I can have mine painted too. So, I'll keep trying. I am always thinking of you and miss you.
Love, Tera

Hi Taylor!! Sorry it has been a while since I have sent you a "blog". I have been really busy, but I never forget about you!
Yes! You keep showing all those doctors and nurses whos really in charge. I get excited everytime I read or here about how well you are doing. I also know that you probably have a few bad days here and there, but the nice thing is that every day is a brand new day! :-)
And the "spa day". Your spoiled! I want a spa day?? Just kidding...you deserve it.
Well, time to go. As always, our prayers and thoughts are with you and your whole family. God bless!
Hi Taylor-
You don't know me, but a friend told me about your story. I was in a car accident and now I'm in a wheelchair too. I drive my chair by blowing air into a straw. My wheelchair is blue. I see that your favorite color is pink. Do you know there are pink wheelchairs? My roommate at the hospital had a pink one! I also was on a ventilator and couldn't really talk out loud. But I don't have to be on it anymore. You won't always be on it either and soon you'll be able to talk!
I'm praying for you and I'll write you another letter soon.
Love, Kari
Hi Taylor,
I hope you are staying cozy warm during this cold weather. It has been in the 20's in Chico, BRRR! I am so glad to hear that you are continuing to improve. I pray for you and your Mom and your entire family everyday. No matter what, God is always right there with you. Always remember that!
Love,
Linda Knapp
