Welcome to Our Journey

Thank you for sharing a part in our journey with Carleigh. We found out August 10, 2008 that we were going to have another baby and we were very excited! We never expected our daughter to be diagnosed with anencephaly, a fatal neural tube defect, at 22 1/2 weeks on Dec 15, 2008. It was devastating. Without a doubt in our minds, we carried our daughter to term. Carleigh McKenna was due on April 17, 2009 and was born still on March 28, 2009. We cherished the many months we had her in the womb and the few days she was with us after she was born. What a blessing she has been in our lives and in the lives of countless others. For now she is in the arms of Jesus, but we know we will see her again one day and then she will be in ours.

Read With Us


Welcome to Read With Us at Caring for Carleigh. This reading group started after my blog readers and I read the book I'll Hold You In Heaven together and answered questions relating to it. Many of those that participated in the original reading expressed interest in doing more readings together. So here we are!

Each book that is read is picked by a majority vote for those who are participating. Everyone who participates is expected to obtain their own book for reading, whether it is borrowed or bought. Sometimes a giveaway may be held in which you could win the book.

Once most everyone has their book the reading will begin. The structure of each book reading will depend on the book itself. The length of each reading time for chapters is determined by chapter length and will be specific for each book read. I will post all the information for the reading before the reading begins for each book.

Questions for each book are made up by me and can be answered through a comment on the post or on your own blog and linked to mine via MckLinky. I encourage you to post your own thoughts and discussion about the books along with the questions. Reading of the books will always begin at the beginning of the week. I will post any questions and my discussion as soon as possible.

Any questions regarding the reading group Read With Us can be emailed to me at caring4carleigh@yahoo.com.

Thank you to all who participate in the readings!
