Tuesday, March 3

A quick recap that Tammy sent yesterday… We can’t help but be thankful for the friends, family, and blessings that the Lord has bestowed us.

 

Taylor is still doing a good job in therapy.  Today, she coo-ed doing both her sessions with OT.  It made my heart smile. J  Jeff and I had our first Care Conference this morning.  Basically, this was a meeting with everyone who is involved with Taylor.  They gave us an idea of what they hoped to get out of Taylor.  Simple things like, turning her head to recognize toys and faces, bringing her hands together, and kicking her legs while relaxed...They estimate that she needs about 6 weeks of therapy.  Therefore, our estimated date of departure is April 9th.  It could be more or less depending on how Taylor is doing.  Jeff and I celebrate our 5th anniversary on April 10th, so it would be a great present to have her home by the 10th.  We'll have to wait and see.  Personally, I can already tell a difference in Taylor's healing.  The therapists and nurses say she tries to localize with her eyes and she does turn her head towards noises.  When you're with her all the time, you kind of get the same impression, but you don't know if you’re just desperate for good news.  It's good to hear it from the professionals!  We're just so thankful that she was given the chance to be here...

Love ya lots!!! 

Tammy


God Bless
