Straight Nate Is Back! | Elvis Duran Exclusive 

Not gonna lie, he had me tearing up the entire time. Missed you Nate.

The fact that this man is still alive is a miracle. The fact that he’s still himself after all of this is an even bigger miracle. Nate is the Morning Show’s miracle, we all missed him so much and I’m so happy that he’s back!!!

So happy he's back, he was so missed. Now that said, be sure he's always wrapped in bubble wrap, just to be safe.

Awesome to see he survived such a life altering event! God Bless him!!

I was bawlling in my car listening to this. so happy hes better and back!!

I'm so happy Nate is back and doing well. I cried and I can understand him wanting to do everything he can now while he can. Stay well & blessed Nate. We missed you! Welcome back!

I remember I was at work when I heard this and I cried so much. Because all I could remember was the day I gave birth. Long story short, the nurse at the hospital dismissed my suspicions of complications with my pregnancy. At 7:30pm I texted my husband at work that my mom and I were going to leave shortly, the dr wanted an ultrasound done to make sure the nurse's statement was reasonable. My daughter was born at 8:02pm. After I texted my husband, I went to use the bathroom and that's when I went into full labor because my placenta had totally detached, and my baby girl had no oxygen for that entire time. I couldnt meet her til she was a day old, I didn't get to hold her til she was 8 days old, and I couldn't bring her home til she was 14 days old. She's turning 2 in 3 weeks. If you see her now, you would've never known she had any bleeding in her brain. She's this sweet, overly happy baby. The trauma of that day hasn't left me. I don't think it ever will. I still remember the dr saying the most terrifying thing: we need her in the OR now, we're losing them. They had to put me to sleep for the c-section because if they waited just 3 minutes for an anesthesiologist to arrive, my daughter and I would've died. You don't know fear until you almost die. It doesn't even matter what the situation was, feeling death consume you is painful and terrifying and if you survive it you're so lucky but you will live on with the flashbacks. if I have any pregnancies in the future, I can only go up to 35 weeks and then the baby will need to be delivered early because my first princess arrived fashionably early. It's the safest option and I prefer it that way. The cool part of this whole thing was the way that the NICU nurses and doctors treated me. I was a celebrity in the NICU; "the lady who came in with some mommy's instinct suggestion and was 100% correct." That part was pretty cool. They shook my hand and were really surprised to see that I was so young (21 at the time). My mom specifically brought me there cause I'm still her baby even though I'm married and have my own baby and a whole career lol. I just want everyone to enjoy life and remember that we're these weak, self destructing humans. Anything can happen either inside or out that can cause you or a loved one to never come home. Always remind your family that you love them. ❤️

Welcome back Nate! As handsome as ever! We missed you! ❤️

Welcome back Nate I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. My dad had a stroke just recently and it was his 5th time and the worst one. Take it easy and like you say enjoy live because you never know when the day comes that you will not be here. Live everyday like it is your last and or the last time you might spend time with your friends and family.

Good to see you nate

Always great to hear Nate on radio. Good to see this again

Didn’t know this until just now. I’m a nurse and with my hours can’t listen to the show for chunks of time. I’m SOOOO happy you’re okay Nate! You’re my very favorite on the show. And many congrats on your engagement. Live happy, be happy and travel lots!! ❤️❤️

Nate!!! So happy to see you back but still hoping you take it really easy! I don't know what your beliefs are, but you're meant to be here for something! Thank you for your transparency, it will help so many (like my friend's 28 year old husband who just had a stroke and is still recovering). Never apologize for crying, there's so much healing through that. You're amazing and so many people, include me, are glad you're alive!

Thank you for sharing your story and your state of mind....Continued prayers for your recovery.

So happy you're back!!!

I haven't listened in awhile. I had no idea! I'm so glad that he made it through. In tears.

God bless you Nate! I know what you mean about living your life to the fullest. Years ago I fell asleep on the way home from work. I hit an oak tree. I should of died as well. 24 years later I'm still here I'm very blessed. 😉🙏🙏

Blessings to Nate. I listened to this live on the radio when it first aired and again just now. I'm so happy that it worked out for you & that Heather was there to help you along. You, as I've said on other social media sites, are truly the Christmas Miracle.

A true miracle. We are sending you endless prayers and love Nate .Life is so precious and I am happy you have a guardian angel working overtime keeping you safe❤

Nate I love you man

Holding back the tears watching this! So glad to see Nate back!

So glad hes okay. Love you Nate!

I missed you Nate!!!! 😢❤So happy you're back and healthy!!!! Yay!!!!! I love you bunches. Life Is precious. God bless you 🙏

I'm still recovering from my similar situation. I was told by a very good friend that he thought I was going to be an organ donor when he visited me the first time. The support that formed around me is an amazing blessing. Miracles upon miracles are very humbling

Thank you, Nate. Glad to see you and excited for the rest of your life!

Nate has brought awareness!!!! So happy he's better!!!!❤

Welcome back nate miss u bud

Praying for you Nate! Thank God you’re okay. Glad you’re doing well! Take care of yourself.

I listen to you guys every morning on the way to my shitty ass job and I remember when this happened. I'm not crying you're crying 😭😭😭

This is so intense. I love this show my son and I love phone tap on the way to school. This was so sad on the radio when it happened and they told us he was out and when Nate was in the hospital and called in he was so emotional and I was too. I mean at least he had great sex before the stroke. So glad your back. We love you you’re a miracle Nate 💜💜💜

So glad you are ok Nate. I can honestly say I know how you feel. At 35 I had a stroke. When I got to the hospital they found a tumor in my heart that had broken apart and shot to my brain. So I had the other type of stroke. They did emergency open heart surgery and here I am today 17 years later. I was told 95% of atrial myxomas are found on the autopsy table. So I’m one of the unluckiest lucky people too lol

😭, I am so glad you're able to live another day..

Glad you’re back. I’m happy you made it.

That was the cause of my Mom's death at a young age.. He is very Lucky and Blessed. He is right life is very precious take time with every moment

Thank you for posting this! I couldn't hear all of this in my car because I had to get to work. So happy to see Nate doing so well. I teared up as well (quite a bit actually) hearing his account. This truly is a miracle.

Glad you're ok Straight Nate. I had a near death experience in July and understand the scare that it gives a person. I love this show so much. You guys are extremely awesome. The best reason to wake up early is to listen to you guys. LoL

Wow. I love this show but have been going through a lot in life lately such as my daughter’s disabilities etc. This makes me feel so fortunate that regardless of how tough life has been, my kids and I are alive. I’m so happy you’re okay Nate ❤️😢. I’m going to start listening to the show again. Time to start enjoying life again.

Is anyone else grabbing there head while listening to this? Thank god he made it through.

It was so amazing to hear his voice this morning 💙 wish you all the good health Nate and a brighter new decade 😘

so glad Nate is okay.

I'm so happy to see Nate back. So scarey.

Wow. This was very moving. I'm amazed that he was so transparent. I am going to schedule a checkup for my partner. It's long overdue.

Dam!!! This made me upset too. I would be scared as well after wards. Hope he gets better!!

Same thing happened to my brother at same age ..he is 35yr old now has had brain surgery 2 strokes aneurysm now he sufferes from seizures even on medication..scariest thing ever he is my little brother but he recovered like Nate did from strokes ect and dr dont know why and are amazed he dodnt have more complications. Best of luck to you Nate sending ❤❤❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 from ohio..Same with my brother he was 29 in great health all of a sudden he was needing brain surgery it scariest thing ever no known resson they shaved my brothers head n put drain in.. For my mom to have to sign the consent was hardest thing she ever had to do. And the waiting was horribly stressful.. Godbless you

I cried when I heard this on the radio that day but it really resonated with me today when I watched it on RU-vid. I finally escaped an abusive relationship with my sons father that went on for six years. They were many attempts to end my life as well as physical abuse- it doesn’t matter how you almost died but after a few times you really kinda get it-i’ll never look at a sunrise the same again I hug and kiss my son so much he calls me a smother now-but idc!! we should all appreciate every day we have bc no of us knows what tomorrow will bring. i’m broke now I need to find a new place I can’t afford to stay in our house but I still don’t fucking care!! Living in a box would be better than what we had to deal with on the daily. The strength you need to carry on after you almost die is something people rarely experience-& that’s a good thing of course!! but just wanted to say I’m really happy you’re alive Nate! stay that way please!! & I promise I will too! much love, listener since forever, thanks for being my friends even if we don’t know each other I consider you all friends-even scary lol-just kidding!! & def keep up with the fart jokes!! Allison ❤️

I’m just gonna day it. His pants are still a few sizes to small 😂🤣😂 glad to see you back bro!! I just had the same pain a few weeks ago but it went away so I’m hope I’m fine

You and Pink Floyd has gotten me through my worst times. Thank you and keep it up please!

Im not crying, you're crying....
