One of courage and determination.

It’s lovely to see that Taylor had the passion and drive to fulfill something he believed in, even though he knew it was going to be harder because he deals with CP. Whatever that dream is and however hard that dream will be, Taylor has proved through the odds, it can be done.

Well done.

Thank you so much for the update on Taylor, it is so great to hear about his continued success. Best of luck to Taylor on the golf team this year.

I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone at KKI for the amazing work that they do. Teressa was Taylor’s primary therapist and she had her hands full at times with him! However, their hard work paid off. Taylor was selected to be on his Middle School golf team again this year (as an 8th grader) and he is proving to be one of the team leaders. His time at KKI, short tho it was, taught him not only how to better use his hand, but patience! He doesn’t become as frustrated nearly as often as before and when he does, he takes a step back, a deep breath, and starts again.

Thanks so much to everyone at Kennedy Krieger Institute. You do amazing work. Your dedication, compassion, determination, and drive is conveyed to your patients in a most positive way. Keep up the good work!
