Even though it took me so long to have my miracle baby, I am truly blessed and thankful that he is healthy. I do not take that for granted. Not a day goes by that I don't thank my God for my son's health.
This week is Congenital Heart Defect Awareness Week. 1 out of every 100 babies has a CHD and many are not detected until it is too late. If you are pregnant or planning to have a baby please request a Pulse Oximetry Test to check the baby's heart right after the baby is born. This test is not routine and really should be.
Here you can read Kristine's post about CHD and her daughter Cora
