In July 2018, April Robson and her husband received the news their middle daughter, Charlotte, had a genetic terminal illness. At the time, they had an 8 week old son and a toddler (Charlotte's big sis). With grace and strength, April has poured into her family for the last 18 months, creating special memories for her family and encouraging them - and those of us watching their story unfold - to choose joy.

Today April is sharing her family's story and how they navigate the holiday season with a chronically ill child and make memories for the whole family, including their two other children.

Follow April online at @smidgeofthis and @charlottesjoy to learn more about their story and support them in their journey.
