Welcome to Nathan's Cancer Journey

This blog is a reposting of Nathan's Caringbridge page which we updated throughout his battle with Neuroblastoma.

Nathan was born on June 16, 2000, diagnosed with Stage IV Neuroblastoma on April 1, 2003 and died on July 29, 2007.

I have posted the journal here to make it easier to look up by date and also to be able to easily add pictures to the journal entries.

Some of the pictures go along with the text, but many of the pictures you will see were pictures taken on the same date the journal was added, even if the pictures have nothing to do with the text. In the future I may add additional journal entries to go along with pictures to add more explanation/memories.

I am just getting started posting the years of entries and so this will be incomplete for some time. I hope to eventually also post the guestbook entries by date as a comment on the post.

Nothing much going on. Nathan will go to the clinic tomorrow morning to get his blood tested and for them to look at his stiches. We don't feel they have gotten worse but they are not better either. He is having a good day so far and I dare say he seems to feel a little better. I hope this means his counts will be up somewhat tomorrow. Who knows if he will need a transfusion. I am hoping not but a suppose there is a good chance he will.
The weather has finally cooled down here and we are much more comfortable. I took Nathan and Julia for a ride in the wagon this morning and it was nice to be able to do that without frying.
