My Nonprofit Reviews

CHERUBS has been such a wonderful organization for not only myself, but my large family. Unlike most families, I was aware of what CDH was, as I lost my oldest brother to it in 1973. However, I did not know to the extent of just how critical this birth defect was. My 18 week ultrasound showed nothing wrong. I didn't find out my son was going to have CDH until 8 days before his birth. I found myself not sleeping and searching for anyone who would talk to me and understand what I was feeling and going through. All I kept seeing online was the negative side to CDH. Then, I came across CHERUBS. I met and had an instant bond to all these families who knew exactly that I was feeling and going through. I remember posting something brief on the FB page explaining that I was due any day and just had barely found out, and the next morning I had several friend requests instantly from members.

CHERUBS has given me support and has given me the opportunity to serve others in the CDH community. I'm very grateful for the service, love, support and friendship I find with CHERUBS. I'm grateful that I can now call myself an official HOSPITAL ANGEL volunteer for CHERUBS and visit other CHERUB (CDH) families in need.
