Telephone game.

Hi Friends! Sorry for the dead air this week. I know I say it a lot but this mamma has a lot on her plate. On top of starting school we have had an influx of doctors appointments and little projects going on. Some days it's all I can do to keep from sinking. But I'm back!

I know there has been a little chatter regarding Cooper so I thought I would clear the air for everyone.

As a side note. We made the decision not to tell anyone about this until we knew more, but I know word travels fast ( faster than I would like) This was not done to hurt anyone's feelings and I am sorry if people felt left out. As I say a lot on this blog. I feel like this is our story to tell in the manner in which we choose.... and the timeline in which we want. This is Coopers story not anyone else's. Honestly I never ever get mad about anything but this my friends makes my blood boil.

You know the telephone game. Where one person says something that then they tell another person and another person and so on until the original message is so misconstrued that it makes everyone giggle.

Here is a good example of that: Please see Cooper giggling about this very thing.

The real story: Cooper had a cardiologist appointment a few weeks ago. His pulmonary stinosis is the same ( mild) but he is now showing aortic stinosis (mild). This was a surprise for our medical team and for Dusty and I. I was alone at the doctors and had a very small ( okay maybe not so small) melt down about it. This is only a small snap shoot of his heart on one day. We will not know any more for 6 more months. The doctors are worried but NOT overly concerned. Everything is the same... just more monitoring and follow up appointments.

Not the Real Story: Cooper is not having a heart transplant, nor is he having heart surgery.

Another side note: As much as it bothers me to no end. I do understand that everyone loves Cooper and our family and that people want to know current updates. We love you too.  I know that the emails and phone calls/text I have received have all been from a place of love and concern, I appreciate it more than I can tell you in one short blog post. The outpouring of support from family, friends and coworkers has been shocking... mostly because it was about something that was not true. I can only imagine what the reaction would be if there was really something wrong.

I promise to keep you updated on his progress in 6 months.
