I am a Mother to a 4 year old CDH Warrior. I was devistated by a disease I had never heard of at my 20 week ultrasound. For two weeks I was in a deep dark depression and as I lay in bed I felt my Son kicking me from within. I thought to myself, this is a Fighter, I had better follow suit. I logged into my computer and quickly found CHERUBS. I have to admit, I was a voyer for a bit of time. I celebrated the life of the warriors and sympathized with the families that lost their babies to this disease. CHERUBS gave me hope when I had none, an ear to listen when I needed one, and a hug when I least expected one. In honor of my Son and to help other families on their CDH journey, I have become State Rep of Wa. I hope one day, with enough research bills passed, we will release balloons in celebration of LIFE after CDH.
