WELCOME to the HOME of all things TEAM NATE DOG! Here's a place we created to help keep you all updated on the progress of our little Nate Dog! As many of you know, Nate entered the hospital the day before Mother's Day of 2008 with severe bacterial meningitis. He suffered numerous strokes and many seizures which have resulted in significant brain damage. Since coming home, he has made remarkable progress and does day in and day out. We are very proud of our little fighter and here's a place we can ramble and ramble on and on (and on) about things to keep us motivated and of course updates on the DOG himself! Hope you enjoy, and we do LOVE feedback! Guest book is at the bottom of the page!
NATE UPDATE 8/8/08
Hey Everyone!!!How does everyone like the new site? I'm so excited about it!So, Nate had an appt. with a new pediatrician today. I wasn't by any means unhappy with our family doc., but I just thought a actual pediatrician would be in the best interest for Nate. She's really nice, I like her alot and she had a lot a questions for us and also gave us some suggestions for further therapy. He weighs about 17 1/2 lbs., he's 27 inches long and is growing pretty well. After his doc. appt., we headed off to his HBOT and about 20 mins in, one of the kiddos that was in there with us had a massive blowout. At first it was just the smell, then.... it was the toxicity. My throat started to burn..... thank the lord that they decided to end the treatment and get him out. It wasn't a "full" treatment but it does count as a treatment. Nate only has 4 left! It will be really nice to be done with it for a while. Nate had his first taste of carrots today! I was very Martha Stewart and actually made his baby food. I steamed the carrots for a while then blended them up. He seemed to really like it! These stages of growing up has always been so neat! I'm so proud of this little guy for being able to eat real food! He's still surprising us to this day!Well, hope you all are well and we are still so appreciative of all your support! Love to all!Carolyn
