Journal entry by Kevin Taylor

Dylan has been home since March 24th. 
Just a few weeks, but the feeling of time is so much longer.

We are so grateful to everyone who came out to support and greet him at Sandersferry Pizza. That was a fun night for everyone!

Since then there have been so many doctors appointments.

Unfortunately, he will be undergoing another surgery April 18. This time it will be to the right knee. This is needed due to torn PCL, meniscus, ect. Apparently this was missed when he was examined and in trauma at Skyline.

I wanted to take a moment and list a few events that will be here before we know it:

(the story below is why the fundraiser is happening!)
 
I know there have been many stories passed around about our son, [Dylan Taylor](https://www.facebook.com/dylan.taylor.5264?__cft__[0]=AZXYZv2rquSDmiNjLlqmZibSMcE_zGUF9VzSms-lLXWl3an3qFTngXL5jnl65pVElO0XGg9tq4ZbZ6r1GjfPj2t-Xw8zXP2wv2t4b3F-DOlgV_1_H1_tkLLsSIFx6vl1FNc&__tn__=-]K-R) accident Tuesday evening. A car pulled out of Stoneridge Farms apartments at approximately 5:30pm on 11/29 at 2325 Nashville Pike, Gallatin, TN. and hit Dylan on his motorcycle. There were several witnesses that assisted and contacted me. Much love to you all. Dylan was taken to Skyline Medical Center and is currently in the ICU Trauma center. He is lucky to be alive. He suffered a lot of injuries: Broken ankle, 5 broken ribs, broken wrist, several broken fingers, and lacerated tendons in both of his knees, but the broken back with spinal injuries is what is most critical.
 
He underwent back surgery Wednesday morning and they put multiple rods and screws in his back. He is undergoing ankle surgery and surgery for his lacerations this morning.
 
I appreciate all the prayers his friends and family have provided. Dylan has a long road to recovery .
 
PLEASE KEEP THE PRAYERS GOING🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
