Meet Our Cherubs!  - My third baby was diagnosed with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia, at 20 weeks gestation.  Joshua not only had CDH, but he also had heart problems (CHD). As a result of heart failure, he was retaining fluid. At 29 weeks, his fluid had increased rapidly - It had reached his chest cavity and need to be delivered as soon as possible.  Joshua Angel was born on March 30th, 2010, weighing 3 lbs 6 oz.  That moment was a very special moment that I will FOREVER cherish. After Joshua's birth, he had two cardiac arrests, persistent hypoxia,  pneumothorax on his right lung, and Pulmonary Hypertension. After a long night of fighting CDH, he passed away at 12 hours old in daddy's arms. He has forever touched our lives, and tough us that we must always be STRONG and COURAGEOUS just as he was.
