Taylor has had a good couple of days. She has continued her schooling in her room. Her breathing is also improving. Although she is still on a ventilator her volumes are getting better. This means that she is getting a bigger breath using the pacer. We hope she continues to improve and will soon be just on the pacer and able to enjoy some of the freedom that she was just getting used to, such as going outside. Once she is able to do that her Grandma will bring her horse down to see her. For the mean time she has gotten a break from the bike and is only working with Occupational Therapy in the afternoon. The bike, like any exercise, was causing her to need a bigger breath and for now the doctors feel that she is better served to take it easy and focus on her breathing.

This Saturday is Taylor's dinner in Gridley. You can find information about the dinner under the "How To Help" tab on Taylor's homepage. Also don't forget the "Day on the Green" concert and BBQ that is next Saturday at the Colusa County Fairgrounds. Taylor and her family greatly appreciate all of the support from everyone involved in these events.

Hello Taylor-

We are so glad to finally have an update on your condition. We are very happy to hear that you are doing much better with your breathing and that you have still been busy with your schooling. I'm sure that you are very eager to be back on the pacer only and roam around like you were used to doing. We are sure that you are extrememly excited to finally be able to see your horse soon. I sure that your horse misses you very much as well. Have a great day and we look forward to hearing from you. Lots of love, hugs, kisses, and prayers.

Taylor,
We need to apologize for not writing to you for quite some time. We are sorry. We were still going to your website daily to see how you were doing. Sorry to hear that you are back on the ventilator and not able to leave your room. Hope that you are better real soon so you can see your horse. That will be so awesome. We have already bought tickets to the "Day on the Green". You are so lucky to have people like Andy and Kelli Garcia that write to you everyday. They never miss a day. Stay strong and never give up. We know that must be pretty hard at times. You and your family are in our thoughts daily. Boomer & JoAnne
