Both it is then! You are not being a hog girl!!!!!!!
Thanks, Corin! I wanted to add it our Myspace so now I'll go do that. Thank you!
I finally did Shane's video. I did great through his videos of him laughing and playing, the funeral photos killed me though. Up til 4:00 am this morning a blubbering mess. :( I made the stupid, stupid, stupid mistake of thinking I could handle the photos if I crossed my eyes really, really hard so it was all blurry when I looked at them at really fast and then I wouldn't see him, just the outlines of the photos. It worked... yeah, ok, sounds ridiculous and funny, but it did work. I didn't see details on any of the photo, thank goodness, but even without the details of him laying the casket... and I don't remember the hospital taking photos of the 3 of us after Shane died but apparently they did and I caught a glimpse of our faces and Jeremy crying... just killed me. I don't want to remember Shane like that, I've tried for almost 9 years to forget the funeral and his death... of course I can't, but I keep trying! I found a photo of Shane where you can only see the top of his baseball cap... that's included in the video. That's it, everything else is about his life. I forgot how silly he was.
The song choice is a bit odd, the first verse sounds horrible actually if you listen to the lyrics but the rest of the song is spot on, especially the chorus. It's a bit dramatic, but the purpose of the video is raise awareness and catch people's attention.
I felt like Shane was missing out without me doing a video of him... finally it's done. I feel like I got to spend some time with him last night, but it was still hard. But so worth it if it helps educate people about CDH.
Ok, enough rambling, here it is...

And another video I did last night - Taking A Stand Against CDH - about all of our and our support of each other.

PS - I think I may have figured out the e-mail issue, cross your fingers please!
*Someone*... I have my ideas on who.... reported Shane's video to Facebook and had it removed because of the background song. :(
Dawn- It is BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I am in tears, he looks so happy in all those videos! I am so glad you put that together! The song was perfect!
I'm sorry someone felt the need to take it off facebook-thats sad.
Beautiful video Dawn, you must be so pleased that you have finally made it. I don't know about you but making Jacob's video helped me so much
Dawn I absolutely loved the video well done. It's a fitting tribute to a very special boy, he's so gorgeous!
Is it the second part that was removed, is that why it says it's 8 minutes but stops after 4 or so mins. I too think it's sad that someone did this to you.
Amazing, brillant, beautiful.
Thank you so much for sharing Shane with us.
I cried the whole time--but to see Shane smiling and to show all of these pictures of his life--can't even be described in words.
You did a fantastic job and whoever requested to have it removed from facebook--that is truly SAD.
The song is a great choice.
God only continue to Bless you Dawn--you have helped so many through CHERUBS.
Shane's legacy will live on forever through you and CHERUBS.
Shane smiles down at his Mommy daily and is so very proud of you.
I made a video! Not of Alyssa. I want to try and get that done for her 16 birthday (later this month). I did one featuring all of our CHERUBS Australia Annual Forum photos. I have uploaded it to YouTube (amazed I managed all of this without a clue, lol) and now I don't know what to do. Dawn, do you add it to the other cherubs video's? The link is:

Please let me know if I need to do anything else. I am going to add it to the new aussie cherubs site I have been working on (for years I think!) and add it to my Facebook page.
Hope you enjoy it and can see how much we all love our annual gatherings :)
I know I've already said, but just wanted to say again what a great job you have done!!! Good on you Danielle :)
Dawn-here is the link for Lily's video as well, last time I checked it wasn't on the CHERUBS youtube site but I think I posted it in the wrong forum.
