We had a checkup with Caroline's cardiologist today and were thrilled to learn that her VSD (ventricular septal defect) has completely closed and there is no longer any opening or hole whatsoever!! We were very, very pleased with that news. Caroline was a champ during her echocardiogram after the technician let her pick a beanie baby to hold and she put a puppy dog video on for her to watch. Dr. Waller has been great and easy to talk to over the past 2 years. He mentioned that it was only a 10-20% chance that the hole in her heart would close on its own by this time. No more checkups or any other precautions are required at this time!! Thanks for your thoughts and prayers and we were on this journey with Caroline.
