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.

Good morning,

First off, I need to thank everyone who has donated to Lunch for Life so far. We are been overwhelmed by seeing all of your names on the Lunch for Life page and we know there are a lot more names of those we don't personally know. Big thanks to you all!

Nathan's first week of preschool went well. He still is enjoying it immensely.

Both children have been overly emotional this week and having lots of fits. I am handling it very poorly and have been having a hard time myself. I have held it together for so long and through such horrible times and it is beginning to wear on me. Hopefully we will all adjust soon and start to heal.

We have no big plans for this holiday weekend. The weather will not be so great today and tomorrow. We will have to find a way to occupy ourselves indoors.

I hope you all have a great weekend!
