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!

We are officially back in treatment. Taylor started her day feeling pretty well. She seemed a little tired but was up and around. She did not end up getting her shot today at 6:00 am. There was a little confusion with the timing....she will receive her 1st injection on Wednesday at 6:00 pm....much better time!! Things definitely took a turn this afternoon. Taylor started throwing up around 3:00 and finally stopped once she fell asleep. They have now given her 3 medications to help with the vomiting....I am hoping they are finally working....she is exhausted. She has also gotten her "rash" back that she gets each time. It is on her forehead and face this time. She is getting the eyedrops again every 4 hours....hopefully the rash won't go to her eyes this round. So......not the best start to this round. She is really not feeling well. She will get another dose of chemo tonight at midnight. I hope she sleeps through it.

We have only been here for 24 hours and I already miss Savannah so much. I can't stop thinking about what she said to me yesterday as Taylor and I drove off. Savannah said, "I will see you someday Mommy." As tragic as this situation is for Taylor, it is just as tragic for Savannah. How do I choose who I stay with on Christmas???? This question haunts me at night......

Enough for tonight....
