Hello - hope you all are having a good weekend. We are despite some (not serious) challenges. Our dog, Ellie has been escaping from our yard lately and she did again while we were out at Sams Club yesterday. So - we had to go off to home depot and get materials to put down an additional fence. We did that without too much trouble but then discovered we had cut the phone line. We have a history with cutting our phone line and just paid for the last time where we did in knowingly to be able to build a retaining wall. Anyway..I shall be digging this afternoon to try to find the two ends and splice it ourselves so we don't have to pay again. Until then we can be reached on our cell phones.
Nathan was able to get a flu shot on Friday. Since it is his very first one he has to get another one in a month. They say they will have the does for him. He did very well with it. I have been telling him that on Wednesday we have to start his shot for New York again. He isn't too happy but hopefully with the warning he will not throw a fit about it when the time comes.
On Tuesday, Nathan will go to see the ear doctor and have his hearing aides checked. Lately it has seemed to us like his hearing has declined. It is not likely the case but we are curious to see what they say.
No more medical news. I will try to get to the bottom of the urine test results this week.
This afternoon the kids and I are planning to go to a Halloween party thrown by the Candlelighters (childhood cancer organiziation). This kids will get to wear their costumes and I am just so happy that they can do this together since they will be apart for Halloween.
That's about all that is going on here. I do have a request for you all...I noticed that the last guestbook message was over a week ago. Well - I am trying hard to update at least twice a week so it would mean a lot to me to see that guestbook signed as often! It makes it feel a little bit less like I am holding a one-way conversation!
Hope you all have a good week.
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.
