Eye Contact!!!

Today was another good day.

Taylor has not yet been able to focus his eyes or to fix them on an object. But, that changed this afternoon.

While Taylor's Mother, Suzie, talked to Taylor she said "Taylor, can you look at me?" She repeated it several times. Taylor then moved his eyes and looked directly into hers. He looked at her as she talked to him and it was clear that he knew who she was. We don't know how long he may have looked at her.....she got so emotional she had to leave the room. But, it lasted long enough for his Mother to know that he heard her and wanted to look her in the eyes.

Lauren, Taylor's sister, then stood beside his bed and talked with him and he made direct eye contact with her too. It was very emotional and reinforced our belief that he hears us and understands what we're saying to him.

It was another very good day.
