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.

Hello,

We have had a good day today.

Nathan had a very good time at preschool. He told me he loved it. He said he played a lot. The teacher told me he refused to dance and was also concerned about him because it took him a lot of effort to get up off of the floor. I Told them that was normal. He still doesn't have the strength of an average 4 year old but he can do most things so I am assuming it was his normal behavior. He played well with the other kids and fit right in.

We got the bunk beds and the kids are very happy about them. They have been playing and can't wait to go to bed tonight.

I put a few pictures up on the photo page below.
