A thank you from Taylors Grandmother:
When I talked to the neuro- surgeon the night of 1/13 concerning Taylor, I found out just how bad her injuries were. He was honest with me and after telling me that she had severe brain damage and brain swelling , her eye socket was broke, part of her jaw was broken and numerous other bones in the left side of her face were broken, he then told me that she could die from ...the injuries. I knew then that only God could guide their hands and save her. Trina and Chawn reached out to the CCJFA family for prayers. I was overwhelmed by all of you and your families and friends, a lot of them strangers to Taylor, by the love and support that was shown, by all the prayers that were sent on her behalf. I have always believed in the power of prayer, but have never experienced first hand what prayer can do until now. I believe God listened to all of you and answered those prayers in the best possible way. And when she had a set back with the seizures, all of you sent up prayers again. And again, God heard and sent the neurologist that was able to see what was happening and help her. Though she will have to take medicine to control the brain seizures for the foreseeable future and still has to go to physical therapy, she is now home and doing well. The doctors say as of now, they see no reason that she won’t make a full recovery in time. So to ALL of you, I give my thank you and gratitude from the bottom of my soul. Without the love and support that was shown to my family and Taylor, without all of your prayers, we would not have made it through this. It is a debt that I can never repay. But what I can do, and am going to do, in honor of all of you, is pay it forward. So please know that for every act of kindness I show someone, for every person I may help in some way, be it big or small, it was made possible by all the love and support shown for Taylor. Again, from the bottom of my soul, I thank all of you – my family, my friends, my CCJFA family and all of the wonderful strangers who took time from their day to send a prayer for a wonderful little girl named Taylor.
