Update on my Grandson Nathan

15 years ago

I'm going to try and post a link to my grandson Nate's Care Page. You may have to enter a name and password, I'm not sure. Oh and when you see him with blonde hair, it's was just a summer fun thing last year. He's got his natural brown hair now. His mom just told me he cut it short, in case he loses his hair, it won't be such a noticable thing.

He's such a good kid. He had his 1st radiation treatment today. Tomorrow they'll see the oncologist, and he'll get started on his chemo pill.

He continues to be in my healing prayers. Good news about the shrinkage of the tumor but bad news about his feeling worse after treatment. Hugs to you, too, Leslie.

Thanks everyone. Eva, isn't Care Pages great? I've been following a couple of others there. They are 6 or so years younger than Nate. It's been very sad lately. Nathan has such a good outlook, and lots of faith. He bounced back real quick after being on antibiotics for a week. And yes, his mom is a dear daughter. And a great mom. Leslie

Leslie if I could reach out and give you a hug I would! ((((((((((((Leslie)))))))))))))) I am sending my prayers to Nathan, to you and all of the family. I'm still hoping for the best and at least there is another course of action available for Nathan. LOL to all of you, Peggy

No, the radiation shouldn't make him sick. I could cause him to lose his hair, at that spot anyway. The chemo pill may though, and that also could cause hair loss. They'll probably find out the things the chemo pill will do tomorrow when they talk to the oncologist.

Thanks, Leslie. I have another friend who has a Care Page so I will check Nate's, too! For those who aren't familiar with CarePages, you have to register (FREE). Then each time you log in to CarePages, you can go visit anyone's page if you have their name (in this case, Nate1992).

He is so cute! :-) I like his natural hair color better, but that fishing picture ROCKS!

You explained it better Rita. You do have to sign up, but it's free.
Nathan loves to fish, can you tell? He always puts them back after he catches them.
He is also a fantastic wrestler. He made the varisty team as a Freshman this past year. Like his mom says, "He our fighter." He also played soccer, and is pretty good at that too. He just loves sports. (I also check out another Care Page on LonnieBubba. He's a young 42 or 43 year old guy from my home town, who was T-boned at an intersection, by a 17 yr. old kid who ran the stop sign. It rolled his pick-up 3 or 4 times, and he was life flighted to the University Hospital in Omaha, and is fighting his way back to walk again. He wasn't expected to live. But he has really been fighting a good battle to recover his mobility.)
