Ways To Honor or Remember Your Cherub
At
CHERUBS we realize that EVERY CDH baby is special, every family is
courageous and every journey is one to be remembered and
honored. By working as a whole CDH community we honor
all cherubs but we know that familes also sometimes feel the need to do
something more and give something back in honor of all that they have
been through or in memory of a baby lost too soon.
Below is a list of amazing things you can do in honor or in memory of
your cherub to help other babies through CDH research, awareness and
support.
