Visitors, Packages, Letters and Texts

Taylor has been doing her thing; going to class by day and dancing and singing (in her bed) by night. Just like any 20 year old!

In between all the work and recreation she has gotten a steady and very welcome stream of communications from her friends and extended family. Each night she tries a new flavor of tea from a special tea selection sent to her by a friend. She also gets various items sent to her to help with her therapy, including media gift cards. She got a couple of really cool tee-shirts though we don’t know who sent them (apologies if you told us and we misplaced that piece of information.) There are also really nice letters that come most days. Each one is read to her as soon as she gets it.

Her phone buzzes occasionally and she is quick to ask if she has a new text message and if so loves to hear them including occasional messages with links to news stories her friends think Taylor might like. She responds with brief messages back mostly giving thanks.

In addition to the communications, Taylor is also visited by her extended family here in Denver and really appreciates spending time with her aunts Pansy and Tracy, uncle Hung and their families. We have found that the therapy gym at 6PM is a great place to let the visiting kids run wild during a visit.

These moments are the highlight of Taylor’s day and she is so happy to get them. Thank you all for your touching sentiments.

  1. Wish I could take credit for the mystery T-shirts, but no. I think I could learn a lot from you, Taylor, about how important it is to dance and sing as much as you can, no matter how old you are. Sending love from Santa Monica.

  2. How wonderful to celebrate the ordinary details of everyday life!

  3. Taylor, let yourself revel in the affection people are showing you! It’s a joy for us to cheer you on.
