When Matt was 10 we took him to the allergist. He had always had trouble breathing fully and we figured we should finally have him checked for asthma. She did a peak flow meter test on him and he blew surprisingly low. So low that she thought she better send him for a chest x ray. What we saw on the x ray surprised us all! His chest cavity was full of intestines! Our doctor thinks that Matt was born that way and somehow just survived it. I can't believe we didn't find all of this out until he was 10; we had taken him for well checks every year since he was born. Why didn't anyone discover this sooner? He had it repaired shortly thereafter at CHOP and they did an amazing job. Matt is now in high school and has been very active in both football and lacrosse since. I am thankful for a happy ending to our story, but my heart breaks for the stories that I am reading about that don't end as well. God be with you.
