About Me
- COOPER OGLE
- Several of you have asked how you can help--prayers are the best help we can ask for! For those of you who asked how to donate to help with medical and living expenses over the next several months, an account has been set up at AmSouth Bank in Cooper's name. To make a donation, please send checks payable to Cooper Ogle to the address below. Thank you to all of you who have helped us along the way, and thanks especially to all of you who continue to faithfully pray for us! Attn: Teller AmSouth Bank 707 North Broadway Knoxville, TN 37917 As you see on my webpage, I have DiGeorge Syndrome. It's a very rare birth defect that caused a lot of problems with my heart and immune system. My mom and dad are working very hard to get all my problems fixed, and with God's help, I should be 100%! I really appreciate Dr Louise Markert at Duke University--she's the one who figured out how to give me an immune system! And either my mom or dad are going to give me one of their parathyroid glands. Everyone loves me so much, and I am amazed by all the help we have received! God is definitely watching over me!

What an adorable baby boy! I am fortunate enough to get to see Cooper almost every day. (My baby girl is his neighbor so Emily and I get to check on each other.) I am so glad for you guys. Good luck with the "Room In" and I am going to miss you when you go!

Congratulations on your beautiful baby boy! My heart goes out to you and my prayers go up for you. I understand a bit of what you're facing, as my own son traveled to Georgetown for his life-saving treatments when he was very small and diagnosed with a rare condition. I pray that you will not only find the medical treatment that Cooper needs, but that you will have peace and comfort in knowing that God will provide your every need....medical, physical, spiritual, emotional and financial.
Hello Emily,
My name is Kelly Mitchell and I am from Sevierville as well. I recently moved to Middle TN. by Vanderbilt because my son has DiGeorge Syndrome and the care he needs was more advanced here in Nashville. My grandmother called me from Dandridge to tell me your story from the news. My heart goes out to you and your family I know what kind of pain you are going though. I want to you know that we are praying for you and Cooper. Our son Alex is now 2 years old and is doing so well. He is a wonderful child and a blessing to have each and everyday. We to had the surgery at Vanderbilt for open heart and they are so good there I can't speak highly enough about them. We still attend Vandy for all of his care. Alex did not have as severe immune system problems as your baby so I can not imagine how that is for you, but we did have the heart, weight problem, very bad stomach problems, and several other issues. Right now we are battleing speech. It is a long hard road and if you need anything or anyone to talk to please contact me anytime at 865-803-4522 that is my cell phone number or Plumbingmasters4tn@yahoo.com
Sincerley,
The Mitchells
