Our son Maxton was diagnosed with left-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) at his 19 week ultrasound. Maxton was born on 3/3/09 at Vanderbilt University. He fought hard for 18 days but earned his wings on 3/21/09. Maxton was an inspiration to many during his brief time on earth and has forever changed our lives. If your child is diagnosed with CDH, please feel free to contact us. Maxton may no longer live here on earth, but he will live forever in our hearts...

Thanks!

I want to thank everyone for getting Maxton's bracelets. If you ordered some from me I am putting them in the mail tomorrow (if I make it to the post office in time). I think I have emailed most of you about them. Also, if you need silicone bracelets anytime for anything, I ordered mine from www.ybuw.com. They came from China (if you ordered one please don't chew on it ;-) ) but they were the cheapest I could find. Almost half as cheap as most of the other companies. I also emailed to see if I could put a butterfly on the bracelet (it wasn't an option at the time) and they went and added it to options. they were awesome and I am very pleased. Also, if you plan to get a Parker Reese T-Shirt, let me know. The deadline to order is May 31st!

This week has been pretty good for me except that it seems like everyone is getting pregnant. Everyday this week I found out someone was expecting except for today (and yesterdays was just on a TV show) but it seems like babies are popping up everywhere!!!! I just want my Maxton back. It's so hard to believe he has come and gone. It's almost surreal if you have never experienced it. Those of you who have, I am sorry, but I know that you all understand. I hope everyone has a good weekend! Thanks for checkin in on us.

I look at the pic of Maxton, and I am so sad. I cannot even look at Kaden's pic. They are such beautiful babies, and should be here with us. It is so sad that our otherwise perfect son's are here but cannot stay....

I love you Ash and I don't know what to say to make it better for either of us. i love you, and know how you feel.

I love the Maxton bracelets. These babies had no idea how big of a mark they would leave on the world, did they??
