Lincoln was born with a rare diaphragm defect known as right-sided Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) on May 26th, 2011. We were told that Lincoln had little more than 50% chance of survival. Linc fought hard for his life in the beginning, coming very close to losing his life. After 83 days in the NICU, Lincoln came home to us. He remains strong and stubborn, and is now a happy, healthy one year old. This blog documents his life.

Lincoln's Visitors
I just want to make every one aware that now that the season is changing and flu season is upon us that visitors are only welcome to see Lincoln if they are feeling well and are free of any cold like symptoms, including what you may think is just allergies. I would prefer for anyone that is going to be around Lincoln to have gotten a flu shot also, as long as your doctor is ok with it. Visitors will also need to continue to practice good hand washing habits as well. I just want to take these extra precausions to hopefully prevent Lincoln from catching a cold that turns to pneumonia. His doctors have been very diligent about cautioning me of this possibility and how serious a respiratory infection can be for little Lincoln. Thank you for all of your support.
