Correspondent Catherine Herridge And Husband JD Hayes' Blissful Married Life

Catherine and JD have been married for several years and they are still going very strong with no rumors of any extra-marital affairs or a divorce.

Like every other couple, they also faced numerous ups and downs in their relationship but they have certainly worked out all those problems as they are still together happy and in love.

Unfortunately, their son, Peter, was diagnosed with a rare chronic liver disease known as biliary atresia. It is a rare form of cancer that progressively damages vital body functions. Both JD and his wife were terrified by the news but they fought together in that situation with each other's support and love.

According to Catherine, her partner has always been the biggest support system for her and it was his care, support, and love which gave her the strength to deal with their son’s medical condition.

Catherine Herridge And JD Hayes' Battle Against Their Son’s Cancer

The two of them has been blessed with two children a son Peter Herridge and a daughter Jamie Herridge. Everything was perfect for them until they found out that their son was battling cancer.

It was the most frightening and emotional period of their life. For the parents their child is everything and they can do whatever it takes to protect them.

Similarly, the couple fought several months for their son. They waited for several months with a hope of finding a liver donor for the transplant but they were not able to find one.

However, with the advice of the doctor, Catherine agreed to become the donor but it was not the easy decision to make as she also had another child an eighteen months old daughter, Jamie. 

When she decided to donate her liver, she said,

"Peter needs it and that’s really the end of it. My son’s over at the Children’s Hospital."

Fortunately, she has her spouse who was ready to take all the responsibilities for his family. He not only took care of his baby girl but also his wife and son. 

Currently, Peter is fine as he is as healthy as other normal kids. We must say the love, pray, and support of his parents really worked out for him.

Catherine actually gave a second life to Peter. When asked about giving a second life to her son she said:

“Several people have said this to me and I guess that’s probably true in some ways but, you know, you give life to somebody once that’s a very big deal. I mean you can understand it if you’ve done it.”

She further added,

“But several people have said to me it’s like giving him life a second time, which you know I never expected to, yes. And I really hope it works out for him."

We wish the family lifetime of happiness and togetherness and pray for their longevity.
