Journal entry by Erin Mudgett —
Hi all, our final update with Jude (drum roll please)...
We followed up with the cardiologist (who initially diagnosed Jude with a Coarct while in utero) on Friday. After another exam, EKG and echo, she shared that from what she can tell currently, he does not have a Coarct and will NOT need surgery! It's hard to explain all the details but basically Jude's heart developed differently than what the initial echo projected. The PDA vessel is not totally closed yet so we have another echo in 3 weeks but everyone agrees that things look fantastic.
Connect with us from now on if your wondering how things are going. We'd love to hear from you.
It's hard to convey how much we appreciate your love, support, good vibes, healing thoughts, positive energy, all the things!
