Being a parent or care giver to a child with CDH isn't easy. On one hand we are very blessed that our loved one is a survivor. We wouldn't change that for the world. But sometimes it feels like the walls are caving in threatening to crush us like little ants. When the walls threaten to fall, and your world threatens to collapse, take a few minutes for yourself. A few deep breathes, a few minutes alone in a quiet room, an ipod in your ears blasting your favorite music, SOMETHING! You deserve it. YOU NEED IT! You need to stay strong through this long harsh journey and to do that you need to take care of yourself. I know it's seems easier said than done. I've been there...am there. To say its tough feels like an understatement at times. And sometimes you just need someone to look you in the eye and say "You got this". So here I am metaphorically looking you in the eye. You got this. You can do this. Your stronger than you could ever imagine. Just wait and see. You got this! <3 <3 <3
