A Breath of Hope

Hope that after the dreaded news that things will turn out alright or hope that you can handle anything that will come to you if things do not go right. Why Breath of Hope was started to help others know there was hope that people cared. Those that have "been there, done that" know better what it is like than anyone else. We know the cycles of grief that occur for both Expectant Parents, Parents who have children that survive CDH and for Parents whose child decided wings were more appealing than feet.

To give a Breath of Hope, when the worst experience happens. To have a doctor tell you your unborn, newly born or still born child has Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia and has a 50/50 chance. Even if they survive it, that they might have health issues.

To give a Breath of Hope....
