This week at Kelly's Korner the theme was Working Moms. Being a working mom is hard. My day doesn't end when the school bell rings. I would love to be able to be one of those work from home moms or stay at home moms, but unfortunately, that's not in the cards for us. With Nola's hydrocephalus and hearing loss, the health insurance from being a teacher is a must. Just like any mother, I will do anything for my children!
This blog is to share with others our family's journey with hydrocephalus and hearing loss. We hope this blog gives hope and inspiration to families who may be facing the same diagnosis.

- Nola's Journey
- Nola Gracyn's journal is to help others keep up with our little miracle. She was born with congenital hydrocephalus and has had 3 surgeries as a result- shunt placement & 2 revisions. Nola was diagnosed with profound hearing loss in the Summer 2009, and had bi-lateral cochlear implant surgery on December 14. Nola was "turned on" January 6, 2010. Nothing will stop this spunky little thing! She amazes her Mommy & Daddy everyday and charms everyone she meets. We cannot imagine life without her!

Visiting from Kelly's...what a beautiful little girl you have! I'm a teacher, too! It's hard to be working mom sometimes, but it looks like you are doing a fabulous job!
