3rd Annual CDH Summit - You can View!

Our 3rd Annual CDH Summit in Colorado was amazing.  We have the following links to the "raw" presentations we had a live stream available for everyone to attend.  Thank you all who tuned in and please bear with these - new technology and we are all learning!  We hope to do this for all future summits too!  Nothing compares to being there and meeting the amazing speakers and other families.  Truly, there is healing and lifelong friends confirmed at these meetings!  No one goes away without a hug!

We would also like to thank each of those that presented information or their stories.
