A Visit with Taylor at Primary Children's Hospital

Neal and I went up to Primary Children's Hospital to see Taylor.  She had been transferred from IHC to Primary's on Tuesday.  There was such a change in Taylor.  We saw a happy, talkative and very positive patient.  Taylor said the she is so much happier at Primarys and it was easy to tell.  She is doing therapy twice a day.  She goes in the morning and again in the afternoon.  She is learning little by little what she is capable of.  She says her goal is to be at school the first day.  She knows this probably won't happen but that is her goal.  She totally understands that her life is changed and she has accepted that.  It was such a wonderful visit, full of hope and witnessing many prayers answered in Taylor's behalf. 
It was interesting today.  I went to Michaels and the girl who checked me out was in a wheelchair and I teared up and thought of Taylor.  The young lady looked high school or college age and was employed just like everyone else.  Taylor's journey is certainly different that she or her parents or any of us expected it to be, but it will be her journey and with Taylor's determination and if she stays close to the gospel principles and her Father in Heaven, she will be able to accomplish all she was supposed to here on this earth.  We all love you Taylor and are your biggest cheerleaders!

This is a picture of the bands they are selling at the high school to raise money for Taylors needs..  You notice it says Judy instead of Taylor.  All her friends call her Judy.  That must make her Grandmother Judy very happy.
