Meet Nathan—Mitochondrial Disease Patient

"Lively" and "energetic" are common descriptors of any young boy. But Nathan's spirited demeanor comes from deep within and with help from his hospital, as he was born with a condition that depletes vital energy levels. Just a few weeks before his first birthday, Nathan was diagnosed with mitochondrial disease, a degenerative disorder that attacks the mitochondria — the source that creates enough energy for the body's systems to sustain function and support growth. Nathan's nine specialists ensure he stays on track with oxygen supplementation, daily medication and the placement of a gastric stimulator in his stomach. While his body may not always have the proper energy, Nate's fun-loving personality stands in stark contrast to his disease. He wants to be a comedian or late-night talk show host when he grows up. Or, if that doesn't work out, one of the drivers at the Kilimanjaro Safari at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Children's Miracle Network Hospitals donations helped open the pediatric emergency department, and fully fund child life services and the Arts in Medicine program — all of which support Nathan's livelihood.
