Taylor had a great morning. She got an early morning visit from a friend of the family from Elk Grove. Also today the doctors changed her trach to a different one that allows her to talk easier. She was able to talk before but only on a limited basis. Now she is talking easily and all of the time. The family told the doctors they might want to keep the other trach handy because Taylor can really talk a lot and they might want to reinstall the one that quiets her down. Taylor was very excited to have the ability to talk and she had her first real conversation over the phone since the accident today. She continued her muscle stimulation and exercises with the physical therapy doctors. Taylor called it an early night tonight because she slept very little last night.
