Seven months after Taylor's accident, he still has "cheering sections" that pop up from time to time. Some, like Pam Rentz's Sunday School class outside of Atlanta, GA, has watched Taylor's progress for months and prayed for his recovery. Pam is a friend of a friend who has watched Taylor's progress and shared it with her class as an example of God's healing powers, and the power of prayer.
Then, there were blogs blogging Taylor's blog. After our visit with Officer Pat Guity of the Lakeland Police Department, a note about Taylor's visit appeared at the department's website at www. insidelakelandpd.org . And, Josh Hallett at www.empiricalpolk.com recently learned of Taylor's blog and gave it a "shout out" recently as an example of how a blog can help keep folks connected in an event like this.
A childhood friend of mine, Marc Macaulay, has also kept up with Taylor from his home in south Florida. Marc is an actor (the kind that really makes a living at it) and recently sent Taylor a copy of The Punisher (filmed in Tampa) and a Block Buster gift card. You can check out the movies and TV shows Marc is currently in (or has been in) at the Internet Movie Database ( www.imdb.com/name/nm0531333) .
Marc has appeared in films with Sandra Bullock, Jack Nicholson, Diane Keaton, Queen Latifah, John Travolta, Woody Harrelson, Colin Farrell, Jim Carrey, Wesley Snipes, Will Smith, Martin Lawrence.....anyway, you get the idea. He's not some goofy wannabe. He's goofy, just not a wannabe (you know I'm kidding, Marc)
Taylor is spending a lot of time at home watching movies with friends, so he's already ripped through the gift card and has watched The Punisher a couple of times.

Although I have never been a big church-goer myself, Taylor was on prayer lists all over Houston as soon as I heard. A close friend of mine is very involved in her Catholic church out here and she asked for updates constantly on Taylor to pass on to those praying for him here. They had no idea who he was or even who I was, but they prayed for him still. There are so many miracles that brought Taylor back and I'm thankful for every one of them. The world needs more people like the Smith family! (you make it fun :)
