By Ashleigh Viveiros
A Winkler toddler got the chance to help the Manitoba Lung Association celebrate the opening of its new offi ces in Winni- peg last month. Two-year-old Kara Hamm and her parents Holly and Cody cut the cake in celebration of the new offi ces alongside Dr. Richard Keijzer, who performed the surgery that saved Kara’s life as a newborn. Kara was born with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), a hole in her diaphragm and abnormally developed lungs that would have made every breath she took a struggle. Holly Hamm says they found out something was wrong with their baby at her 20 week prenatal appointment, but there was little that could be done in utero. “We found out because her heart was pushed over to the right, and so that’s one of the signs that they look for,” Hamm recalls. “So we were sent off to Winnipeg right away to confi rm that it was CDH, and it was.” What followed was a multitude of tests, visits to the NICU in Winnipeg, and consultations with surgeons leading up to Kara’s birth in preparation for what would come immediately after. “With CDH, everything shifts around and all your organs move to the top, but they can’t tell how serious it is when they’re in the womb,” Hamm explains. “So they didn’t know how much of her diaphragm was missing.” Surgery was a given, though, and waiting to see the extent of the problems Kara would face after birth made for a stressful PHOTO BY ASHLEIGH VIVEIROS/VOICE time for the young family.

By Ashleigh Viveiros
Teams from all over Manitoba and beyond were at the rinks in Winkler, Morden, and Plum Coulee last week- end for the Winkler High School Hockey Invitational Tournament hosted by Northlands Parkway Col- legiate and Garden Valley Collegiate. The NPC Nighthawks started strong with a 4-2 win over the Beaver Brae Broncos. They then came up short 8-4 against College Beliveau before righting themselves once again with a 6-0 victory over the Melita/Was- kada Devils before ultimately falling 2-1 to West Kildonan. The GVC Zodiacs narrowly fell to the Stonewall Rams 5-4 in their fi rst match. They went on to down West Kildonan 4-3 in overtime, lost to Vird- en 9-5, and beat College Beliveau 5-4 to fi nish in 11th place. Meanwhile, in regular Zone 4 hock- ey action, the Thunder handed the Nighthawks a 6-5 loss on Jan. 5, fell to the Trojans 5-4 on Jan. 7, and then downed the visiting Carman Cou- gars 4-3 on Monday.
