When Cindy was two weeks old she was diagnosed with coarctation
of the
aorta, two ventricular septal defects and a bicuspid aortic valve. Her coarctation was repaired
and a
band was put on her pulmonary artery when she was two weeks old (January 9th 1997). Her
recovery from the surgery was uneventful. But two weeks after she was released from the
hospital she had to be rehospitalized for RSV. She was in the hospital for
one week with RSV. She will need another surgery to repair her ventricular septal defects and to
remove the band the
surgeons placed on her pulmonary artery when she is six months old.![]() |
