Stories of Cherubs Vol. II

[Dawn Torrence Ireland]

It's been 2 years since Vol. I so let's get Vol. II out this year!!! Vol. I had over 300 stories, I think we can add 200 at least to Vol. II. If you story was not in Vol. I, it will be in this edition.

To submit your cherub's story and photo, please e-mail them membership@cherubs-cdh.org with Cherub's Story in the subject line.

Please submit them by typing directly onto the e-mail or with a MS Word document or text file attachment. Photos need to be in jpg, png or bmp format. If you would like to update your cherub's story, you can send that too - please just make sure to note if it's in Vol. I or your story will be in Vol. II.

These books are not only for us, family and friends but we would really, really, really (seriously - really) like to get you all to donate copies to your cherub's PICU or NICU in honor / memory of your cherub so that new parents can read them as well during their hospital stays (and it won't hurt the doctors and nurses to read them as well!).

I want to change Cole's picture but i think the story is ok
where/how do i send the photo so you'll know its for the book
wanna make sure he gets in this one, i want to buy several to pass out.

[Dawn Torrence Ireland]

Just send it to the same address with the same subject line as above. :)

Oh and everyone please also add the following:

Your name
Your cherub's name
Your cherub's date(s)
Your town

Sometimes people send me stories and photos without names and I can't recognize everyone just by e-mail addresses. :)

Dawn,
I'll get my story and photo of Grayton to you by then. I'm just having trouble looking at the photos of her and, because she wasn't diagnosed in utero, I don't have as many pictures as I'd like to. I just knew we were going to bring her home......I'll get to work on it, though.

[Barbara and KevinWagner]

Dawn can we still buy Vol I? I seen it at the ball and would LOVE a copy!!

Barb

[Dawn Torrence Ireland]

Barb, yes, it's on Cafepress, we won't take it down

Leigh, you have a few months, take your time with the photos, I know it's hard. It took me a year before I could look at Shane's photos so I totally understand.

[KimberlySwitzer]

Dawn, I know I sent in Ashers story and picture as it was in a newsletter but do you want me to re-submit them?

[Donna Easley]

Dawn,

[Dawn Torrence Ireland]
