Obsession or Sympathy?

You decide:

One of the high school students at church broke his leg a while back and has a big cast on it. One day Brad had Cora with him and was bring Josh home from church. Later, when Brad and Cora came home Brad helped Cora tell me what they had done.
"Cora, who did you just see?"
-- "Josh"
"What does Josh have?"
--"Owie" Cora said in a very sad, pathetic voice.
"Where is Josh's owie?"
--"Leg." Her face is all scrunched up in a concerned look and she's breathing short, quick breaths in the urgency of her message. So sad sounding!!

This was about two weeks ago. Almost every day since then, at random times during the day, Cora asks in a panicky sad voice "Josh? Owie? Leg?"

Tonight we went to church to hang out with the high schoolers for a while. We got in the car and I said to Cora "We're going to church to see Daddy!" She responded with "Josh? Owie?" Sigh...

"Yes," I said, "We'll see Josh, too. Do you want to give Josh's owie a kiss and make it all better?"

"Better," she says.

When we saw Josh at church I pointed him out to Cora and asked her if she wanted to give his owie a kiss. Instead, she turned all shy and hid her face in my coat and refused to say hi to any of the students!!!

I can't decide. Is she obsessed, or simply sympathetic?

PS How do you spell "owie?" as in "boo-boo"???
