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 -

I hope you all had a Merry Christmas. We certainly did.

Luke's parents and sister arrived on the 23rd. We have been having a wonderful time being together and the kids love all the attention!

We had so many presents under our tree and had so much fun opening them all.

The kids didn't get up until 6:30 on Christmas morning - so that was fine. We were worried they would be up earlier than that.

Luke's brother arrives today for a short visit and then everyone is leaving on Tuesday.

There is no word yet on scan dates. I talked to the scheduler early in the week so I am hoping to hear something early this coming week.

I will write again midweek.

Merry Christmas!
