Julie,

Always stay positive. I know it is so much easier said than done. One of my best friends had her baby today. I don't know what she had yet or his or her name, but I can already feel myself crumbling and choking up. It's killing me. It seems everyone I know is having healthy babies... everyone except me. Why my baby? Why us? My mind is running a million miles per second. I'm trying to pull some amount of strength from my Angel Boy, Liam. I know he would want me to be strong.

Please stay strong for you and for Bryson! Sending Liam's strength and courage your way!

Much Love,
Jade

Julie,

My prayers and heart reach out to you! I cannot imagine how difficult this time of waiting is. We did not know about Liam's CDH, so our journey to meeting our Angel Boy, Liam was a bit different.

I think of you so often and hold you high on my prayer list! Pleas elet me know if there's any support or anything I can do for you! From one mother to another, this is not an easy journey, but their are people out there that truly care about you and your family and are wishing miracles!

Please take care of yourself! God bless!

Praying for Bryson! Hope you get some answers soon...do keep us posted! What did yesterday's u/s show???

Wow! Praying for one big miracle. Let us know when you can. Wow!

Sorry to hear that you have received the news of you little man having CDH. You are strong, for GOD only gives you what you can handle and he knows you are capable of handling this. Yes the journey is tough. Some days seem longer than other but babies are stronger than anyone could imagine. You have been given a great advantage knowing about your son's CDH early on use it to your advantage. I was not that fortunate, but all turned out better than expected We are all here to support and pray for you. lots of hugs

Thank you Jade. I apprecaite your kindness and support. You are an amazing person, mom and woman! When I write my inner thoughts can just come out on paper. My mom even said that I hadn't shared that with anyone. she had no idea that is how I was feeling. I am blessed for this site where people are able to join together in prayer and friendship. I am praying for you daily that God will continue to give you peace and strength through these next days to come. I dont think it will ever be easy truthfully, but you might have better days and that is what you need to hold on to. Are you going to try again for another child? I would love to read your blog from the beginning of what was the story of when you found out. We did get good news, but alot of uncertainty. I am going to post soon. Thanks.

Julie,

I couldn't read your post without many tears and much crying. My heart reaches out to you. Although I know exactly what it's like having a child with CDH, I cannot imagine the stress it puts on you and Bryson during such a critical time for both of you. Please know that I am here for you and that you are always in my heart, thoghts, and prayers... many, many prayers! I wish you luck today and send my love with you to this appointment. If I could wish one thing for you, it would be that your Bryson is the exception. Too many family are hurting because of this mysterious defect. The world needs to learn more and know to help save these chidlren and prevent this.

Take care and keeo your chin up!

Dear Julie,
My heart goes out to you during this scary time. Our son Liam was born with CDH, though we had no idea prior to his birth. He passed away just over a month after his birth due to an infection in his trachea from the ventilator tube. I know how terrified you are! We have a two year old son, Landon who is, just like your Landon, as healthy as you could imagine. Liam's condition was so unexpected, as he looked as perfect as his brother all the way through my pregnancy.

Please know that, from a mother to a mother, I am here if you ever need to talk or vent. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family!

Take care and God Bless,
Jade Hunt
