CDH Awareness Tshirts

With CDH awareness week only 49 days away we started our tshirt fundraiser.

Please help us spread awareness by buying one of these great shirts.

The money helps us raise awareness to our local hospitals and community.

This fundraiser will last only 2 weeks so get your shirts while you can!!

Please spread the word and the link.

The money raised will be going to print awareness pamphlets,

items to comfort the kids admitted into the hospital,

and spreading awareness to our community.

Here's what we wrote on the fundraiser page:

We are raising money to spread awareness to our local hospitals and community about Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia, a deadly birth defect. My son was born 7/14/11 with CDH and survived. CDH affects 1 in every 2500 births. There is no known cause. 50% of babies born with CDH do NOT survive. Most people have never heard of CDH unless they or someone they know has been affected. We want to change this by spreading awareness as well as helping CDH Families.

Encouraging Words

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
