Also constantly on our minds is Emma's amazing big sister Cloey. We can't wait for her to meet her little sister. Daddy is pretty sure he is going to have his hands full with two girls in the house. Every time we go back and see Emma we let her know that her big sister loves her and can't wait to meet her.

Finding Strength
During this whole experience Jason and I have found incredible strength in each other through this whole experience. It is amazing how we thought we were close we thought we were, but found out that through this we have gotten even closer. Yesterday the nurse told us how well we were doing given our situation. Most times a diaphragmatic hernia is diagnosed during the pregnancy. Then once it is diagnosed the mother delivers here at UVA, the parents receive prenatal counseling, get a tour of the NICU to get comfortable, and have a surgery plan of action already in place. So thankfully with each other, support from family and friends, and the prayers of many we are getting through all of this and fighting for our beautiful baby girl.
