This blog was created by friends as a way for the Souzas to share Taylor's progress with us. Kristen and Sean have not asked for financial help, but their medical bills coupled with Kristen's loss of income is truly overwhelming. They are so appreciative of ALL of the different types of support they have received and are more grateful than you can know. Thank you!
Taylor is a beautiful, vibrant three-year-old girl who was recently diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukemia, a fast-growing cancer of the blood and bone marrow. On June 18th, Taylor began an 8-10 month hospital stay. This blog will detail her journey back to good health!

Hello again - so sorry to post again but noticed there was an error in the post from tonight. I talked about Taylor's results after round 1. I meant to say that after round 1 Taylor had <3>8% blasts of leukemia cells. To be considered in remission, you must have <5% blasts. So....she was in remission after Round 1 and now they are considering her to have relapsed until we repeat the test next Monday.

Hope that isn't too confusing.

Thanks,
Kristen

    Hey! It only took me half a bottle of nail polish remover to undo the manicure Taylor gave me:) My only regret is I forgot to take a picture and leave her a tip!
