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.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We are so incredibly thankful this year. The list could go on and on. I will try to hit the highlights.

We are thankful for:

The current state of good health of our entire family

Our extended families who have been such a great supprt to us.

Our wonderful friends who support us but at times simply make us laugh.

All of you who read this journal and keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

This list could go on and on and encompass every aspect of our lives, but I will end it here. We have really learned to be thankful for the small things and I think that is the most important thing. Right at this moment I can look over and see my children in their pajamas sitting together on the couch and that is all I need to make me happy right now.

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving and can spend the day with those you love.
