Taylor has had a interesting couple of days. She got to move back down to her room after the morning in ICU on Monday. She continued to struggle with her oxygen level and since then has been back to ICU once and had a procedure done with some anesthesia. She has continued to improve in her regular room and is now spending most of her time off of the ventilator.

On Tuesday she got a special visit from Sara. Sara came to visit Taylor and talk with her about exactly what Taylor is going through. Sara brought her service dog and talked with Taylor for a while. Taylor was very glad that Sara stopped by and hopes to see her again soon. Sara shares Taylor's love for horses.

Taylor is looking forward to watching her favorite horse Lady run the Barrels at her Barrell Race in Orland this weekend. She was promised a video tape of the run.

The doctors still say that none of the things that Taylor has experienced this week will prolong her return home. The family still has not been given an exact date and hopes to be going home soon.

Hello Sweet Taylor!

We are glad to hear that you are in your regular room now. I am sure that it is frustrating to be moved out of your room. Just keep hanging in there. You are doing such a fantastic job!

I bet it was nice to meet Sara. I am sure that she will become a good friend. And you got to have her dog in your room? Wow! Did you know that pets are wonderful friends because they help people feel better? So, I am betting that when you get home, your horses will help you feel alot better! Have fun watching the barral race!

Lots of love,
Summer and Makenzie Moore

Hello Taylor-

We are so sorry to hear about the rough couple of days that you have had. We are sure that the doctors are working very hard to make sure everything will work out and you will be home soon. It is very exciting to hear that you were able to have a visit from sara and her dog. I'm sure you were very excited to have a dog in your room. We know how much you love animals and if it can't be your horse I'm sure a dog is the next best thing. I hope you are able to watch your video tape of the barrel racing we know that you will really enjoy it. Have a great day and keep working hard. Lots of love, hugs, kisses, and prayers.

Love-
Andy & Kelli Garcia- Colusa
