gma, my thoughts and prayers are for successful treatment of little Nate's leukemia. I know that Sick Kids here in Toronto has had wonderful outcomes and I'm sure where you are, the care is just as good. Hugs to all.

Update: Nate has Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL).
He had the first chemo treatment today and is expected to be in the hospital at least a week. 
Mom is having a hard time and being 8 mo pregnant isn't making it easier for her.

omg......gma, I am sooo sorry! sending all the healing mojo I can round up in Nate's direction.
Also sending all the "strong grandma" mojo I can find to you. This is truly the hard stuff. And, it's heartbreaking to see a little kid suffer and there's nothing you can do except give them lots of love.
Hang in there.
Sometimes the hardest part of finally seeing through someone is accepting what you see...
God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to
change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me.

Oh GMA I just saw this, Mojo, prayers, and positive thoughts all headed your way.
Are you in same town as them? Help Mom to take care of herself, so she can keep growing that new baby. Stress can be very hard on the unborn kiddo.
Hope the Chemo is not too hard on the little guy. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Thank goodness he has the "better" type of Leukemia and hence the very high odds he is going to be just fine in the long run.
In the midst of all the shock and fear I hope you can all find comfort in the high odds for a full recovery.
I am sure the doctors may have already mentionned it but in case not... Nathans mom should think about having the new baby's umbilical cord frozen... As the cells may be of use to Nathan later in his treatment.
