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!

Great News.....Taylor's monthly check up once again shows NED!!! We could not be more thrilled. This month's test brought a ton of anxiety. I think it is because of the holidays. It is just so hard to believe that this time last year Taylor was getting another round of chemo and was very close to moving into the ICU. Her last round was her toughest and it is still so hard to believe that I am taking her to school every day with Savannah instead of watching the chemo drip into her little body!!!! Miracles do happen!!

Thank you all for your continued love, support, and prayers.

Happy Holidays.

Happy 5th birthday to Taylor and Savannah.....I truly can not believe the girls turned 5 on November 11th. To say that our life is different this year is an understatement. At this time last year, Taylor was in her 4th round of chemotherapy and not feeling well at all. It is amazing to me that a year later she continues to be in remission and has so much energy that I can hardly keep up with her. Miracles do happen and prayers are answered.....
We took the girls to Disneyland for their birthday. We had an amazing trip. The girls loved every minute of it. Disneyland started their "Christmas wonderland" while we were there and it was truly amazing. There were so many times while at Disneyland that I had to truly stop and remind myself that last year I was living at PCH with my child who has leukemia....amazing!!!
Anyway....it was a magical birthday and I will cherish every moment of our trip. I have attached a few pictures from our trip. My favorite is the one with both girls sleeping in the stroller.....this was from our last day at Disney....we got there at 8:00am and left at 8:15 pm......we were all exhausted!!!!
Happy Birthday Taylor and Savannah!!!

GREAT NEWS!!!

NED again this month. For some reason, I was very nervous about Taylor's check up this month but today ended on a very positive note....another month of remission!!!

Taylor and Savannah are both doing great. Their 5th birthday is November 11th and they have chosen for Sean and I to take them to Disneyland instead of having a birthday party. So....we are off for 2 days of Princess Fun at Disneyland. I will post pictures when we get back.

Thank you all for your continued support and concern.
