Update on Nate - 11/10/10

Today is a great day! Praise God for the help He has given to Nate and the Oxfords throughout this time. He has been a sustaining help and comfort all the way and has been faithful to hear the prayers of so many lifted up for Nate. Today, Nate received the news from the Dr that he is released and ready to go home. They are actually travelling cross country right now, heading back to Rockwall. Please pray for their safety as they travel and for Nate's comfort as well. He has to take meds regularly and there will be a checklist of things for him to take all along the journey. Nate will continue to be monitored by Dr's in the DFW area and will make occasional trips back to LA for follow up exams when needed. The days ahead will be very difficult for Nate as his immune system is still developing. Because of this, Nate & family CANNOT have any visitors at all for the next 150 days at least. They are not permitted to have any visits or meals for now, as a protection in the home from illnesses. Nate, Wes, Jackie, Jake and Luke are all so thankful for the many prayers and help that so many of you have given for them. Please continue your prayers for Nate in the coming weeks that his body will continue to get stronger, that his body will continue to accept the transplant and that he will continue in his health. Many of you have asked how you can help. Because of the home cleaning schedule needed at this time some of the things that would be helpful now are Clorox Wipes, Tide with Bleach (Tide brand ONLY) or Wal-Mart gift cards. Please communicate with me via facebook if you would like to assist with some of these items and we'll make arrangements to meet and get these items delivered to them. - Thanks, Scott Brazell
