Telling a parent of a medically complex child to “rest” is like telling someone drowning to just swim back to shore. Without a life vest. During a hurricane. At night. Instead, take action: Order dinner Drop off coffee Help with laundry Watch siblings Be their lifeline.

Huge thanks to The Starbucks Foundation for their generous $1,000 donation to Coping With Laryngomalacia! ⁠ This covers TWO months of rent for our nonprofit—an expense that often gets overlooked. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ We’re so grateful. Thank you for helping us breathe easier 💙⁠

You’ve heard of asthma… but what about airway malacia? It’s when a baby’s airway is so floppy it can collapse while breathing…causing noisy breathing, choking, poor weight gain, and even turning blue. It’s not colic. It’s not reflux.

Tracheomalacia. Bronchomalacia. TBM. Pharyngomalacia. Ever heard of them? Most haven’t. But for families like ours, they’re everyday realities…oxygen, hospital stays, feeding tubes, and fear no one talks about.

Cold steel or laser? Both are methods used during a supraglottoplasty to treat #laryngomalacia. Cold steel = tiny surgical tools used to trim tissue Laser = uses a beam to reshape tissue with precision Every child’s airway is unique—talk to your ENT about the best option.

We know how hard nighttime can be for our little fighters—the wires, the oxygen, the suction machines. 💔 That’s why we created Project PJ’s—to bring warmth, comfort, and a little bit of normalcy to children facing life-threatening airway disorders. copingwithlm.org/projectpjs

Pharyngomalacia = soft pharyngeal walls that collapse during inspiration, causing airway obstruction in infants. It’s hard to spot without specialized scopes…yet it’s real, serious, and underdiagnosed.

Sorry I didn’t reply to your text. I was busy processing how a “common airway disorder” that’s supposed to be noisy breathing…is actually life-threatening for my child. It’s more than noise. It’s fear, hospitals, oxygen, and advocacy. Be kind.

The blue nail polish is chipping… but the impact of #AirwayDay2025? That will never fade. 💙 You showed up. You shared. You educated. You made history as Niagara Falls lit up blue for your airway warrior.

For the first time ever, Niagara Falls lit up BLUE 💙 for World Airway Disorders Day! This powerful moment raised global awareness for laryngomalacia, tracheomalacia, and bronchomalacia — reminding the world that noisy breathing is never normal. Thank you, @NiagaraFalls

Huge thanks to Edie, an Airway Malacia Grandmother who donated much-needed items from our wishlist — with love and deep understanding. She’s followed the ambulance. Sat through surgeries. Fought to be heard. And supported CWL every step, every breath, of the way.
