I am a Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) baby. My diaphragm developed with a hole in it and my organs were misplaced in my chest cavity. The organs pushed on my lungs, causing one lung to be very small. I was born on October 9, 2007 at Johns Hopkins. Now it is three years later: I am saying a bunch of words, I still receive foods through a g-tube and am on oxygen while I sleep. I can't walk yet, but believe I can out scoot anyone! Here is the story of my amazing and patient recovery.

Walk Wyatt Walk!!
Wyatt will be two in October and still has NO desire to walk. He scoots really fast around, but not yet walking. We are working hard to give him every opportunity to walk. He knows what "stand up" means and when we say it and hold him up, he deliberately holds up his legs!! So his PT brought him this walker for him. He hates it and cries when we put him in it... Chloe loves it, she thinks it's a bicycle. So since Wyatt adores Chloe and looks up to her, our plan is for him to watch her play in it and then hopefully he will too!! So please keep saying Walk Wyatt Walk chants and hopefully one day he will:))
