Our story…
As many of you know Taylor who is currently a Winona Middle School Student.
Taylor was born with Von williebrands.
Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is a blood disorder in which the blood does not clot properly. Blood contains many proteins that help the blood clot when needed. This can lead to small, heavy, hard-to-stop bleeding. Although rare, the bleeding can be serious enough to damage joints or internal organs, or even be life-threatening.
Von Williebrands, is rare and, it may develop later in life. Which there are three types of Vonwilliebrands 1,2 &3. Treatments for VWD patients is either Antifibrinolytic Drugs,Desmopressin Acetate Injections and Factor Replacement Therapy.
Taylor over the years have made & met many family, friends, wonderful doctors, nurses,and staff thru the Mayo Hemophilia Treatment Center in Rochester MN, and Hemophilia Foundation Minnesota & Dakotas.
The fact HFMD & HTC have given many learning opportunities and connections to many bleeding disorder children, adults & families. Taylor is extremely brave, courageous, humble & kind.
Taylor is a big inspiration in our community he goes above and beyond to make sure others are put first. The fact he can or we can inspire someone or just brighten someone's day no matter what the day holds for many. But to BE KIND, being kind can go a long way for those that might be facing something you might not see or just a random smile or hi. That's Taylor his heart is PURE GOLD.
He wants to change the world and it doesn't matter how old you need to be. I do BELIEVE he is changing it now.
