About me

Introduction	I gave birth to two beautiful daughters, Natalie and Gabrielle, on November 3, 2008. I was aware before their birth that one of my girls, Gabrielle, would be born with CDH (Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia). This is a life threatening condition and many hospitals are not equipped to treat this condition very well. Therefore, we relocated to Cincinnati for their birth and her treatment. Unfortunately, we lost our battle on January 15, 2009. Our little Gabrielle will live on forever in our hearts. Of course, we continue to pour our love into Natalie. Well... and now, also our son, Grant. He was such a perfect, easy, surprise pregnancy and was born August 6, 2010 without any complications. My heart still hurts deeply, but my arms are fuller now and that really helps. Life seems to be moving forward again.
