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 FINALLY have the urine results and they are normal. So - I guess we can breathe easy for about 2 months until he has scans again. Actually, We will probably wait to do scans in New York in January - so a few extra weeks to not stress about them.

We also were able to splice our phone line.

I took Nathan to the ear doctor today. The audiologist said his hearing is stable and the doctor said his ears look good. He doesn't have to go back for six months. He did so good with the testing because she did a lot of it today and to have to sit and concentrate listening for beeps for a half hour is not an easy task.

Afterwards he wanted to go to McDonalds and so he got to play in the play area. He is happily at preschool now.

That is all the new for now...thanks for checking in, and for signing the guest book.
