Update March 1, 2007 & Fundraiser Info.

Taylor is enjoying her new room on the 3rd floor. She is now in room 336. See the right side of the home page for Taylor's new mailing address. Taylor started school this last Monday. She has a private tutor and works on her schoolwork from 9:30 am to 11:30 am. In the afternoon Taylor rides her bike for about 1 hour.

Taylor has been sleeping through the night since she moved to her new room. The lights go out at night on the third floor, unlike in the ICU where the lights seemed to be on at all hours. Taylor has also been eating more, which makes the doctors very happy.

Taylor can have guests on the weekends, but the family asks that you call before you come visit. The next update will include Taylor's new phone number.
