Oh, Nate, Nate, Nate. His mother just posted on CaringBridge: ____________________________________________ Nate, being Nate, no needs his gall bladder out. He has several large gall stones. Tomorrow, He has barium swallow, upper GI series and a bowel series. Then, He goes to a pre-op meeting with the surgeon. Just another bump in the road. His counts are good and He is really enjoying school this year. We will keep you updated as soon as We know anything. _________________________________________ Please kick up the prayer machine for him again and his family. His bumps are becoming almost like the wales in corduroy! Too close together.

Hope they can do the surgery laproscopically and that he sails through it without any problems.

2.) May God's richest blessings be upon you both today and throughout the year. May His blessings flow through you to touch the lives of everyone you meet.

Update from Erin - date of surgery __________________________________________ Nate will be having surgery on Fri. Nov. 13th. He will have to stay at least one night, possibly more depending on how the surgery goes and how well they can mange his pain. The surgeon said he would try to do the surgery through laprascopy and will go through all of his intestines to make sure they got all the stones. I just wish this kid could catch a break and be healthy. We will keep everyone updated. ________________________________________ Please keep prayers coming, folks. Seeing what this little boy has gone through makes me hesitate to complain about my pains. Here's your answer Donna G - they are going to try to do it laproscopically. Will keep you informed as I hear from her.

that will be huge if they can to it laproscopically - recovery is infinitely faster and he will feel so much better with it and the stones gone. Praying that taking care of this will greatly speed his recovery from all he's been through.

Just got this from Erin" ______________________________________ We are home from the hospital and Nate is doing well. He has 4 little holes in his stomach. Once the surgeon was in, they found out that Nate has an inguianl hernia and a hydorseal that will need to be fixed in the next 3-4 weeks. Thankfully that is an in and out surgery. We were lucky enough to end up on the 8th floor, our second home. The hospital was full and some people had to spend the night in the rocovery room. Nate got to see some of his favorite Nurses - Candie - his girlfriend, and Sarah-who sneaks him dunkin doughnuts in the mornings. Thanks for all the well wishes and prayers, We really appreciate all of them. _________________________________________ Thanks for all the prayers.

It's a shame they found more to repair down the line, but thank goodness they found it rather than nate having to live with it until it becomes critical. One more step down on the road to him enjoying a good life again.
I hope Erin's job situation works out. I'm sure this will be hard on them economically but at least she can be home more as Nate goes through these surgeries. I can't imagine the stress of running a home, caring for a sick child (or sick children) AND working at the same time!

I understand that she has a couple of possibilities, so will see what happens. I don't know how she manages three children (had chicken pox at once) and work and still got Nate his treatments. I guess that's why they say children are better given to the young!

Trust me, it better if they all get things like chicken pox at the same time. Then you don't have to try to keep them apart and they are all home to amuse each other and drive each other crazy.
I look at what my daughter does now, to look after a child and care for a home and work and I amazed that she has the energy. I remember doing the same thing, but for the life of me don't remember how.
When my three boys had the chicken pox, one gave it to the next one and so on. I would rather all three did have it at the same time. I know what you mean. Now that I am retired, I keep asking myself, "How did I do all this and work 8 to 10 hours, too?" LOL

Isn't it the truth. Charlie and I just spent half a day picking up a couple of RX on base and buying groceries. Once upon a time I'd have done that myself on the way home from a full days work.
I did get one treat out of it. We are near Beale AFB which is very large and very rural. Former home for the SR71 and home for the U2 and a few other classified goodies. They lease out a lot of land as pasture, so its common to see some lovely black Brangus cattle grazing at the end of the runway. Today as we were driving in there was a huge cow near the road, licking a newborn calf that hadn't stood up yet. We passes her again as we were leaving, and she had three!
