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.

1 more day to go!!!

First off - scans are fine. I don't have the written reports yet but the doctor let me know.

Antibodies went ok. We gave him his pain medication too close together and he kind of conked out and his oxygen went low but we got him right back up. When it was time to go he screamed about leaving (as usual). I didn't handle it all that well and got quite mad at him when we got back to our room. I was trying to get the stroller through the door and he was yelling at me to open the door all they way and I just lost it and yelled at him. I am doing my best - but my best isn't very good right now.

The rest of the day after his nap went OK and now I am too tired to go into more detail.
