Wasn’t I just rhapsodizing about the joys of fall and winter? I may have forgotten to include a tiny little negative – cold and flu season. Yuck. Also, why has cold and flu season arrived so darn EARLY this year?
In case the title doesn’t give it away, Moe came down with a fever which quickly [...]

Coil-y fun

Okay – I’ve been editing and organizing some old posts and it seems that my blog is FULL of promises of more information that never comes. So I’m following up on THISpost with pictures of the coils that were put in Cora’s chest. Her doc gave us 2 to have. The titanium coils come all rolled [...]
Some ramblings about Cora
Posted in Cora, General, tagged Cora, heart on November 16, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I have a lot of thoughts in my head about my girl and just wanted to document them. There is no rhyme or reason.
Cora has been struggling as of late with some strange “spells” that include dizziness, nausea, blurry vision, sweating…it’s a scary thing – for both of us! Her pediatrician ran a ton of tests, [...]

Well, Cora had a blast! Of course, I knew that she would It was interesting how, when we were first making plans for summer camp, Cora was not at all interested in my coming along. She kept asking me if I was sure I wanted to come? Did I HAVE to come? Am I [...]
A day in Cora’s life

Join us for a trip to the cardiologist won’t you?
I didn’t take pictures of the drive – I think we all have highways and overpasses and know all about traveling on them! Just imagine about 20 minutes of it.
Then we arrive at the parking garage…and go up to the third level - the lime level!
Don’t forget [...]
I haven’t been neglecting the blog – I’ve been busy on the About Cora’s Heart page doing a lot of updating. And yes, if you’ve read this for any amount of time you’ll realize that I’ve changed my child’s internetz name a couple of times; I’m just feeling fickle. Check it out if you want more details or [...]
On another note…

Cora is THRILLED that she has been given special permission from the stake to attend Girls Camp this year. She won’t officially be 12 until the month after camp so there was some worry about whether she would be allowed to go. Of course, I’ve already volunteered to be a room mom. Cora is not too [...]

So here is my Cora trying to be brave before going into the Cath Lab. These procedures have gotten a lot harder for her over the years as she has become more aware of what’s going on. I LOVE what the sweet nurse did to her bunny (Cora was about to get the same stuff [...]
All is mostly well

This post may get long and boring so consider yourself warned!
Cora went in for her cath procedure on Thursday morning the 4th. Even with the Versed (“giggle juice”) she was very, very nervous. She would sometimes just start to cry and ask us why we were making her do this, that she didn’t want to [...]
Well, more grey

An RN from the anesthesiologist’s office contacted me to do a routine questionnaire about Cora and her heart and her history etc. The more history and answers I gave, the more she insisted that we couldn’t wait to do the pre-op just before her surgery on Thursday as we had originally planned. She happens to have a pretty complex heart [...]
