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.

I'm a Boy!
A cute story about Wyatt when I got home from work yesterday- he enjoys to color at the kitchen island. The other day, he started to throw his crayons and coloring book on the floor. His audience, our nurse Susan and myself starting jokingly saying... "Wyatt!!" He then looked at us and threw his hands up in the air and said in a loud voice, "I'm a boy!!"... like that's a good excuse to throw things:)) Where would he ever get that statement from? I could only think of when he gets real messy or acts "boy-like," we say- "Wyatt, you are such a boy!"
Wyatt also got a real hair cut... I got fired from cutting his hair... so now he even looks more like a big boy! Now we can put gel in it and spike it up!!
