From the Dodero family
"Our princess, Brea Noelle Dodero, was born April 25th, 2019, at Rose Hospital in Denver, Colorado. Shortly after she arrived, she needed to be on oxygen due to her oxygen levels being low. Within the next day the hospital discovered a heart murmur, and she had some testing done. They had to relocate us to Presbyterian St Luke’s Hospital so we could be seen by a Cardiologist. While at PSL many tests were performed, and the conclusion was made that Brea had Congenital Heart Disease and that she needed to undergo either a series of surgeries or a heart transplant. Once we found this out, we decided to move Brea to Children’s Hospital in Aurora. In total, Brea has had three open heart surgeries (Norwood, Glenn and Fontan), two Cath procedures and had a feeding tube until she was three years old. We are so grateful for the amazing staff of doctors, nurses and admins that have taken such good care of Brea and us over the past 6 years at Children’s Hospital Colorado!"
