Much Needed Haircut

Do you notice something different about our apartment....looking closely. I'll give you a hint, look for a ridiculous amount of hair.

That's right, there's a Nate in it now!




Annie and I held a press conference this weekend to announce that Nate was finally home. It is wonderful but not without its hiccups. Most frustrating of them being his breathing machine he is supposed to sleep with at night.

The problem is that it doesn't work. So that's a negative. So it actually hinders Nate's breathing and causes his oxygen levels to drop. His alarms then go off. This happens all night, about every 15-30 minutes and we have to get up and get his oxygen levels back up.

On the bright side Nate got a haircut. I feel like his hair is better untamed and wild, much like Nate but we have to keep that mullet in check.

Before


After...well during really.



Still before but its a great pic of Nate when he was in his wheel chair. Something about that chair that made him so happy.

Professor X

Whats that you say? There is life outside the hospital? Well, Nate finally got a glimpse of that this last week. Nathaniel has become depressed. He is clingy and cries a lot but we've noticed that if he can be engaged or leave his room him immediately brightens up. We've taken every chance we can get put Nate in his wheelchair and wheel him around. At least once a day they even let us take him outside.

Nate Loves his wheelchair. You don't even have to take him anywhere all the time. Sometimes he just brightens up if you sit him in it. He loves to put his arms up on the arm rests and practice his best Emperor Palpatine.
