Hello and
welcome to Nathan's page.This web site is to
celebrate Nathan's life and to share his journey
with CHD. It is a journey that is filled with love,
hope, smiles and tears. To read his story please use
the menu above. Nathan was born by caesarean section
on 20th October 1993 after a difficult pregnancy. He
is the youngest of our 5 children. He was a lovely
bonny baby who just looked perfect when he was born.
Later that night we found out that he had complex
heart defects and thus started the roller coaster
ride that we have traveled and are still traveling.
He was diagnosed with a Hypoplastic Left Ventricle
with Complex Heart Defects. Nathan has a
love of many things in his life but especially for
soccer and he plays in a summer competition in our
area. He also plays indoor soccer during the winter
months. He loves putting his boots on and
kicking the soccer ball, kicking goals and dreams of
one day being part of the world cup. Nathan will be
turning 13 this year and he can't wait to be a
teenager, the years have passed by so very quickly.
We thank you for visiting
and before you leave please leave us a message in
his guest book as we would love to hear from you -
Kathleen and Glen Smith
