So glad you decided to join !! It is really wonderful to have a sister who is so helpful and wanting to know the care that it takes to have our special kiddos at home..
Many come here for everyday questions, advice, or just to have others "listen" who understand what you are going through and dealing with..
so, jump on in, I am looking forward to getting to know you as well as your sister.

Hi Sarah,
I'm Sarah, mum to Nadia who also has bvcp and was retrached last week. Your sister has probably told you about me. Please feel free to pm me any time. I know exactly what you're going through having been there myself a year ago and to be honest, even though the trache was only out for 8 weeks today has felt a bit like going back to the beginning again.
This board is amazing and kept me going through some of my darkest hours.
Look forward to getting to know you more,
Sarah x
