I know all of the people on here have 'sad days'. A day when tears come easily. I am having one of those days today so I'd like to give thanks.

Today is CDH awareness day so I jumped on here to catch up with the cherubs family. I remember very well how scared I was when we found out our unborn son had CDH. It saddens me to read about new families having to deal with this medical condition. And it breaks my heart to read about other parents grieving for their children who have passed away.

The first time I got on this website was to learn about CDH after our son was diagnosed in utero. The facts about CDH (or lack there of) were overwhelming and I cried and cried. I didn't return for weeks. Then after a lot of research on CDH I had had it with medical terms that were hard to comprehend and craved information from people who had a personal experience with the condition. So I came back to cherubs and started reading other people's stories and reached out. So much support on here! The people I have met and corresponded with have been so helpful, from before Henry was born and even after he passed.

I want to say thank you to cherubs and all of the kind people who have reached out to me and offered love and support.

THANK YOU
