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 all - good news to post....Taylor continues to feel better each day. She is now off of all of her IV antibiotics. Her TPN is now running for only 12 hours/day so she is trying to eat a little throughout the day. She continues to have a very small amount of diarrhea. Her stomach pains are much better and hasn't had morphine in a couple of days.

She has been up every day and loves playing with all of her nurses. They are so amazing about making time to play with Taylor every day.

She had a post-chemotherapy EKG today to determine if there was any damage to her heart. Tomorrow she will have an ECHO to determine the same. She is also having another lung CT tomorrow to see if the lung nodules have gotten any better. If all goes well and the lung CT looks ok....we are praying to go home on Tuesday.....we are both so anxious to go home and be with Savannah.

Another special thank you to Aunt Kerri, Shawn, Gus, Marty and Taylor......we truly appreciate you running the marathon. All of the money raised for the Leukemia Society will hopefully help find a cure for this awful disease!!!
