explanation of Nathan's concerns

Nathan's complications come from several things: During delivery it was discovered that the umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck twice. When born, he was not breathing nor did he have a heart beat. He lost about 50% of his blood in the process.

Because of these complications, he has received 5 blood transfusion from birth until Wednesday afternoon. His kidneys are not functioning properly causing his body to bloat with fluid that has no where to go.

Pray pray that he has frequent urination and his kidneys kick in soon.
