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!

Taylor had another tough day. Her stomach is really bothering her and she has developed a really bad rash from going to the bathroom so much. She is eating again but everything seems to go right through her due to the C-diff. Poor little thing......even though, I know she doesn't feel well, she tried her best to have some energy to play. She had little bursts of energy and tried to do a little.

Her counts went up again a tiny bit today. They are hoping we might be home by Thanksgiving but we will definitely be back in for Christmas. She said today, "mommy, I will stay here for Thanksgiving, I just want to be home with my sister for Santa!!" It simply breaks my heart they will be separated on Christmas.

She and her friend Leo Weber talked on the phone today. He is downstairs on the 2nd floor getting another round of chemo. They were so cute on the phone. We looked at pictures of Leo on his caringbridge site and Taylor said, "Mommy, he's so cute!!!" I was teasing her that Leo is her boyfriend and she was giggling....it was wonderful to see her laughing!!!

That is all for tonight. Once again, I am just so tired....
