March 16, 2007 - As you probably know by now, Saulo hadn't been feeling good for the past week. On Tuesday he was at a baseball game but was really getting sick. Twenty-four hours later, he's diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
Please use this site to keep up with current developments and offer support to Saulo and his family.
Saulo came home from the hospital on Wednesday and passed all tests that they threw at him with flying colors. His spirits are up and we were able to catch a Dbacks day game, today. Tomorrow Saulo and Team Saulo will be going to the hospital and handing out grab bags to the patients on the pediatric floors. This is due to a Dbacks fan who donated all the toys and other items that filled the bags. Thank you to the anonymous person for your gift.
Team Saulo is planning on doing the Relay For Life next year, but between now and then they are looking for ideas and things to help with the children that are going through similar situations like Saulo. If you have any ideas or would like to help please send a email to teamsaulo@yahoo.com .
Once again thank you for your continued thoughts and prayers. Also, send an extra prayer for a little girl named Katlen, who was in the room next to Saulo and having some life threatening problems.
Thanks for stopping by. Please take a moment to leave Saulo and his family an encouraging note, or to read the entries left by others. Keep in mind your entry will be read by Saulo, his family, and other visitors. Thanks!
