Feel better Taylor!!!  May be a mild ear infection and antibiotics may be able to help, if that is the case.... pls keep us updated!

Get well soon!!!

Hi Taylor - you should see the doc, get a throat culture in case it's not just a virus...
               How's it going with the 12/7 jump ?  I know it's too soon for movement yet,  but did everything go okay ?
               Hang in there little sister, 'everything's gonna be alright.."
Always good thoughts,  Nancy

Hey, Taylor:

Your decision to see the doctor for your sore throat and ear pain is a good one.  Most likely you have some kind of virus but the doctor should be able to determine the actual cause and  - hopefully - prescribe something for you that will help.

Please let us know the outcome of your doctor visit.

Hope you feel better, real soon!

Jim

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

Oh, my mistake Taylor.   So, will the 'nerve graft' you had work the same as the 12/7 ? - give you back tone & movement?   And, what will the muscle transplant do?/extra from the nerve graft ?
Now I'm confused,  but it's nothing new with me      lol   I'll appreciate the info.
