Prayer Needed for our fellow CDH babies

When our little warrior was in the NICU fighting for his life trying to beat the odds and kick CDH (Congital Diaphragmatic Hernia) booty. I honestly believe what helped him beat the odds and helped me and daddy be strong enough to get through those very difficult times was all the support from family,friends and even strangers praying for our little warrior. I know without their support and prayers I don't know if I would have been strong enough and honestly believe that all the prayers really helped Owain recover and beat the odds. Of course Owain wouldn't be here without all the amazing Doctors and Nurses. I am so incredible thankful for everyone that helped us get to the end of our crazy CDH roller coaster ride.....Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

As I am typing this their are three children and their families that need our prayers more than ever. First their is sweet Ava who is two and already beat the odds and won her first CDH battle when she was a newborn. Last Saturday she reherniated and had to have emergency surgery. She is having a difficult time recovering. Please pray for her that she will have the strength to come off of the vent and be on the right road to recovery. It breaks my heart to watch her go through this all over again it seems really unfair. I don't think any child should have to go through any of this.

Next is baby Catherine who was born August 23,2008 and she has been in th NICU fighting a very good fight. Within the last couple of days she has taken a few steps backward please pray that she will be able recover from this devastating birth defect and go home with her mommy and daddy.

Next is our newest warrior baby Carter he is only three days into his battle and is having a rocky few days. Last night he was put on ECMO. Please pray for him that his lungs and heart will be able to rest while ECMO is doing it's job. Pray for him to have the strength to come off of ECMO and to be stable of enough to have his repair surgery.

And lots of lung function chants!

Thank You
