Jan 10, 2018 10:57pm REST IN PEACE MY BEAUTIFUL AMAZING SON… Nathan is an amazing young man who always no matter what the situation always found the good in everyone. Almost 17yrs ago we were gifted the amazing privilege to be parents to such an invigorating and inspiring child, from day one he made his […]

Just a quick note… Nathan made it home yesterday from the hospital as you can see his fan club was very excited to see him.  This week we are hoping to see some sign that the  treatment had an effect as of now Nathan is transfusion dependant for platelets and red cells, the treatment of […]

Novenber 24, 2017 Nathan had some great months in between my last update, he got back on the ice for Sled hockey, Dr pulled his line so he could attend classes with his friends; all was going well, slow but well as it should be for a now 16 year old who has battled cancer […]

So it’s been almost a year since we felt that horrible gut punch of a feeling that something was wrong again and in that time what Nathan and my family has endured has been continuous… BUT here we are at 196 days POST transplant almost our 200 day mark (10/21/2017) and there really hasn’t been […]

Good morning to all, Today we are just 3 days away from that 100 day mark of post transplant….Well guess what in all honesty and truths, that really don’t seem to make a difference for Nathan, as he had a Haplo bone marrow transplant and things tend to work very differently for these cases; BUT […]

It’s been some time since an update and I truly apologize to all but it has been pretty rough this last month for Nathan and my time has been few and far between being able to update. So many think because Nathan has had his transplant and is home that all is said and done […]

Nathan had his first bone marrow biopsy post transplant 2 weeks ago and the results are in…these results show where Nathans cancer the t-MDS and the Leukemia stand in his system as of now; there will definitely be MORE biopsies done as time goes but as for today…. NATHAN’S TESTS SHOW…. . .NO BLOOD CANCER, […]

Well it’s been almost a month now since Nathan has come home and it’s long and grueling…Nathan is on full isolation even at home with regular visits to the transplant clinic; meaning still no living and enjoying life like a normal teen should be BUT he’s home and that alone is a relief and we […]

We are in day +10 now meaning it’s 10 days into transplant, Nathan has no doubtedly had some struggles through these days between transplant fevers from the type of transplant he had to getting an ND feeding tube to help during days of struggling to eat and of course ulcers in his throat from this […]
