We almost lost Coop after his heart surgery due to a blood infection, after his pacemaker implant, after complete heart block. Yep, scariest 5 weeks of our lives. And Dave and I feel like we have some sort of PTSD whenever we talk about it. <br /><br />These kids of ours are fighters who amaze me with their strength. True little miracles.

As someone who is a caretaker and not a mother, I don't have quite the same perspective as the families who read your blog. Leanne and Josie are both so inspiring, and it is warming every day to see how far Josie is coming with her skills and abilities. Your passion and love for her is the same I try to share with the boy I look after. Many warm thoughts for your family always; thank you so much for sharing.

I didn't realize Josie had been so sick. I teared up when I saw that photo of her lungs - and the great change from one day to the next.
