Taylor walked!!!!!!!!!

4:55pm

Every day Taylor says "I want to walk again". Today, he did. Using a device designed to allow him to support most of his body weight with his forearms, he took 15 steps today. He was pretty wobbly, but he did it!! More importantly, it was his first attempt.

Rehab is going to be long and grueling for him, but he is SO motivated. Everyone here comments on how anxious he is to do everything.

He's still in the assessment phase, so he'll have a plan put together in the next few days that will outline the course he'll follow here.

Yes, we love our children infinatley. Yes, we would give anything for things like this not to happen. Yes, we would take their places in a heartbeat.
But that is not how life works.
When these things do happen we get to experience some of the deepest sweetest blessings there are.
God has a plan for your family.
You all have an awesome bond and Taylor's strength and motivation is phenominal. But that too comes from God. Taylor's entire story has God's hand on it. I just want you to know my heart is filled knowing the Lord is on your side.
