This book shares my personal journey of resilience, hope, and finding purpose after being born with congenital CMV. Along the way, I explore how CMV affects individuals, families, and communities, why greater awareness and prevention are so important, and how healthcare providers and educators can play a vital role in helping families through education, early recognition, and support.
