The amazing journey of a brave, fun-loving, creative boy who is enduring and has overcome so much already: failure to thrive, feeding tube dependency, food allergies, silent reflux, pulmonary valvar stenosis, chiari malformation, syringomyelia, retroflexed odontoid, mild bilateral hearing loss, a blood coagulation disorder, and Noonan Syndrome.

Echocardiogram
Auggie recently had an echocardiogram that showed some improvement from two years ago. In other words, as he has grown, so has the valve and therefore the opening that lets blood flow to the lungs is bigger. The flaps that open and close are still a little slow and do not open all the way, but according to the cardiologist this should not impact his daily life in any way. Good news overall!
