Gabrielle Gossip

Gabrielle Gossip is a blog page set up to update our friends and family on Gabby's condition. Gabrielle was born with a major birth defect called OEIS or Cloacal Exstropy. It is an extremely rare birth defect only affecting children 1 in every 400,000 live births. Cloacal exstrophy affects the organs of the abdominal area (mainly the bladder and intestines) where they are displaced to the outside of the body cavity. The birth defect is fixed over the course of several surgeries.

Gabrielle becomes a BIG sister!

Gabrielle holding little sister Avery for the first time. 3-27-2013

On March 27, 2013 we were blessed with a new addition to our little family. Bart, Gabby and I welcomed Avery Grace Himel. Gabrielle is over the moon to be a big sister of course there are those moments when I think she would send her back if she could. She is adjusting pretty well though. Gabby has been helping out by helping with the diapering and the feeding. And of course she is there to let us know when Avery is crying, lol!
