On January 1, 2015 an open letter blog was created in high hopes that one mom, along with other determined parents and friends, could implore author Nicholas Sparks to write a book about a family dealing with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) to raise awareness of this birth defect Ms. Ireland founded CHERUBS in 1995, yet the world still does not know about this monster. It was her wild idea to convince Nicholas Sparks to support the cause and give these children a voice. To do what she hasn't been able to do - tell the world about Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia. One book by Mr. Sparks that includes CDH can open doors to save the lives of 1000's of these children. 1 year, 365 letters, 1 goal - to save these invisible children. The save the cherubs.
