Thread: CDH Families Around the United States

    CDH Families Around the United States

    Well, we're not sure how great this will work but we formatted our database of U.S. members with Google map. These are all the medical care providers and families affected by Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia. We're working on separating them into categories.

    For some reason the map is only showing a few states at a time. You have to flip through the pages to see the states. I think we overloaded Google's map software with so many members!

    We hope this map shows just a little bit of how common CDH really is and that no family is alone!

    Thanks for putting that together! I would love to meet people in my area. I saw there are two in Naples and about 5 in Fort Myers. I put a post here looking for parents in Southwest Florida but didn't find any =(.

    It seems like there are areas that heavily "populated" with CDH...
