Welcome to Send Love to Cohen! Here you can help us mend Cohen’s little heart.


In Oct. 2009, I received a joyful phone call from one of my best friends, Megan… She was pregnant! This baby was conceived out of pure love after a long battle with PCOS. We were all over the moon happy for Megan & Brent. At 10 weeks, Baby “M” became Baby Cohen, a bouncing, happy baby BOY! Everything was wonderful and perfect, until it wasn’t… At 22 weeks, Megan & Brent were devastated to find out that their little Cohen has CHD, Congenital Heart Defect. He has four defects to be exact; four defects that individually are manageable, but that together are very rare and very dangerous. Thus, our friends began on the long journey to fix Cohen’s broken heart. It is a journey that will take them away from their friends and family to have Baby Cohen at the best children’s hospital in the country. It will be a journey of several open heart surgeries and great expense.

If you have landed on this blog it is because you've heard about baby Cohen and the fight his family is facing to hopefully mend his little heart. The family is being surrounded with love, support and prayers, and they are all eternally grateful. There is so much you can do to help through prayer, support and donations. Many of you have contacted Megan about making donations to help. Her friends and family have created some ways for you to help, they are listed below.

I met Megan through a special necklace her friends ordered for her through my shop. See it HERE.  I began to follow her blog and Cohen’s story.  Like thousands of others my life and heart were touched by Megan and her sweet Cohen. I am grateful that Megan and Brent share so much of their lives with us, the readers, and that they shared Cohen’s journey on Earth.  I am inspired and uplifted by their love and faith.  When baby Cohen passed my heart broke for them and I longed to help in some way.  Sometimes there just aren’t words that help or heal.  I believe that God is watching over their family and prayers are the best gifts I can offer.  I will be donating 30% of the profit from my shop from July 10-31.  www.juliethefish.etsy.com No promo code necessary, just order & 30% will go directly to the Marshall family through Cohen’s Memorial Trust.
