“The lower ventricles didn’t grow and connect, leaving a little hole there,” said, Joey’s dad, Joe Powling, who found about the defect when his wife was 24 weeks pregnant. “It was kind of nerve-wracking. ” Because the lungs keep the blood rich with oxygen, babies with tetralogy of Fallot need early surgery to correct the problem. “The long term risk of arrhythmias is lower, and the function of the heart is much better if the repair is done earlier,” said Dr. Christopher Snyder, chief of pediatric cardiology at Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital in Cleveland. On Oct. 25, the Powlings held their breath during the 7-hour procedure. “It felt like forever,” said Joe Powling. “You have no control over the situation. There’s really nothing you can do. ” The surgery to repair tetralogy of Fallot has been around since the 1960s, according to Snyder.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
