“My name is Vivien. I am 32 years old and I live in Spain near Barcelona.
I was born in Germany in a town called Böblingen, in 1992. When I was 9 month old they find out during a routine check in The hospital, that I had a congenital heart defect. I was born like that.
The diagnosis were severals; Atrioventricular septum defect, Ventricular septal defects, Aortic valve stenosis, Aortic insufficiency, Tricuspid valve insufficiency, Mitral valve vitium, A-V Block first grade. I had my surgery in 1993 with only 9 month in Tübingen, Germany in the Hospital. They could not fix everything. A few of my valves are still not closing at all during the bumping action. So my aortic valve it is a bit to tight and the mitral valve is a bit too wide open. I have check up’s once in a year to see if something changed. Until now everything good! Thanks God! I don’t need any medications and I am very glad that I can live my life without medication and I hope it lasts my whole life.”
