Nate is being moved!

Ok I just heard from Bev Cannon first and then from Mr. Graybill that Nate is being moved to a room in the neurology department of the Hospital of the Univ. of Penn. The room he is being moved to is number 580 (NOT 508, thanks for the correction Bev) in the Founders Pavilion of the Hospital. From what Mr. Graybill said, Nate's brain pressure is somewhat under control at this point, and he had a fever which is now back down.

The next step in Nate's treatment will be a trachiotomy and the insertion of a feeding tube, tentatively scheduled for Monday. IMPORTANT: For those of you reading this, please note that Monday will be a bad day to visit Nate if this procedure goes through as planned. More than anything else, visitors would most likely get in the nurses' and doctors' way. Please plan your visits accordingly. We would all like to visit Nate as much as possible, but the last thing any of us want is to be a hindrance to the nurses or doctors as they do what they can for him.

I'll post more as soon as I hear anything, and I've sent an e-mail invitation to the Graybills to join this blog so they should be posting soon as well. Keep praying and encouraging one another, and don't forget to support Nate's family as well!
