Nathan's Occasional Blog

I don’t have a lot of words for this link to a blog about the birth of a new coworker’s child.  Read it if you can (I will tonight from the beginning).

I’ve got email working for my new job early and got a message about the daughter of one of the staffers who’s had a lot of trouble with a heart defect.  I haven’t read a ton, but it looks like their daughter was born on July 2nd and needed a heart transplant.

I’ve got teary eyes just thinking about how blessed and lucky we were with Kaitlyn and Alicea’s ordeal (KC 9 weeks early @ 2.5 pounds with a mom who was “touch and go” for at least 36 hours).

While Kaitlyn was in NICU for 5 weeks, we were lucky enough to not lose any of our neighbors (yay!).  I don’t know what I would do if things turned out differently.

The video’s pretty lame, but the musical arrangement is pretty sweet!  Watch this one in a different browser window … then continue your merry way on the Internet and cover up the video.  Much more enjoyable that way.  🙂
