Team Ramsey!

Who wants to join our team on May 25th for Jaxson's Jog, a run/walk benefitting Global CDH?

I've been trying to attend this walk for the last two years, and this year, I believe it will finally happen. Jaxson is a local CDH survivor who came to visit us with his mom, Sarah during Ramsey's NICU stay. I'm looking forward to walking at the event in honor of our super boys. If you would like to join us, please contact me.

Here are some details, but there are more online. We need 5 people to create a team.

Our TinySuperhero

There's an awesome woman named Robyn who, with the help of her family, started TinySuperheroes. On her website Robyn states, "TinySuperheroes seeks to empower our little ones — one cape at a time. We donate capes to Extraordinary TinySuperheroes who exemplify strength and determination as they overcome great adversity. Once these Extraordinary TinySuperheroes are comfortable in their new capes, we feature them on our blog, in hopes of giving them a voice, their illness or disability a face, and the world the opportunity to stretch."

Visit the TinySuperheroes blog to read Robyn's take on our little hero. It's great to read his story from another's perspective and even better to raise awareness of CDH.
