Welcome to our fundraising page!
We are Team “Nate the Great” and this is our 5th year walking for Boston Children’s Hospital.
At 19 weeks gestation, our Team Captain was diagnosed with several heart defects. We were referred to Boston Children's Hospital where our fears were confirmed when our baby was diagnosed with Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia, an unroofed Coronary Sinus and Bilateral SVCs. Additionally, he was diagnosed with Primary Hypothyroidism, Hydronephrosis and a Grade 4 Kidney Reflux, resulting in his right kidney functioning permanently at only 10-11%.
Nathaniel arrived 4 weeks early in July 2019 and, on day 3 of his life, underwent a PDA Stent Catheterization. He recovered inpatient for 7 days and we were sent home so he could "bulk up" for the full repair in about 5 months time.
On his 22nd day, Nate stopped breathing at home. He was resuscitated by his Daddy on the dining room floor and we returned to Children's Hospital via their Critical Care Ambulatory Team.
After a three week inpatient stay, Nathaniel's heart was fully repaired September 4, 2019 at 5 weeks of age by Dr Christopher Baird. Post surgery, we were inpatient for an additional four weeks.
In just his first 2 years of life, Nathaniel rocked 10 surgeries/OR procedures, which included 2 Open Heart Surgeries. He is now a thriving 4-1/2 year old who loves playing lacrosse and learning to ice skate.
He is the definition of resiliency and strength. And we couldn't be more proud.
We are walking to honor Nathaniel’s journey and to thank the incredible Children's Hospital staff.
This year, we are fundraising for the Heart Center’s Urgent Needs Fund. We appreciate your donation.
