Taylor is now learning to walk with a cane. This is the final phase before he will walk on his own. He is pretty unstable, so it will be a little while before he'll be able to walk with it unassisted, but he's now working on the Nautilus machines daily and will soon turn the 15 pounds he's gained back into muscle. The physical therapists are thrilled at his progress - he's about a month ahead of where they thought he would be at this point.
He has graduated to having his lunch ground, instead of pureed. For now, only lunch is ground and he has to be monitored by a speech therapist. She said if he continues to do as well as he has, he'll likely go to ground meals 3 times a day. That means the feeding tube is closer to coming out, and he's one step closer to eating a regular meal.
