Last week at the babies check up, our pediatrician heard a heart murmur on Roman. As we talked, I told her that we have noticed that he sometimes has a greyish color around his mouth. She sent Roman for an echocardiagram. Today we were notified that he has a Ventricular Septal Defect. This is a small hole in between the 2 chambers of his heart. It should close on its own but they will continue to monitor him. If he would stop eating well, lose weight, have difficulty breathing or have more frequent bluish-grey color by his mouth we will be concerned.
He is a sweet boy and has the MOST kissable cheeks! Please pray that the hole will close on its own.

We will be praying for that sweet boy. Keep us updated!
We understand what you are going through, and we will keep all of you in our prayers!
