Here's an interview from 1993. The condition doesn't have anything to do with her "retirement".
Q: There's a quote of yours which attracted media attention: You said you hated aerobics and political protests. The press felt you were taking a direct jab at Jane.
A: I never said that I hated political protests, but it's true about aerobics.
Q: Is that because you have a hole in your heart?
A: I have a hole in my heart, which is a fairly common heart murmur, but it doesn't stop me from doing 5b4anything. It basically means that I have to take antibiotics when I have my teeth cleaned or any kind of surgery because there's a possibility that the bacteria will lodge itself within that hole. So in that way it's serious, but you only have to be medicated.
Q: How did you find out about it?
A: I have a third heartbeat. It's like boom, boom, shhh. The doctors knew it from the time I was very small. I went to UCLA every four years and had heart tests.
Q: Did that give you a sense of your own fragility?
A: No, because I was always told that it wouldn't stop me from doing anything that I wanted to do.

Probably cordell, but being a Fonda, she'll reappear. Most actors complain that movie making is a tedious and boring process, esp. larger budget films with 4 to 6 month shooting schedules. Wanting to do something else is understandable, but I'd like to see her back.

So she has to be oppressed to NOT want to be on the hollywood spotlight? Please. With her family connections she doesn't need the money. And about the tiny hole in the heart condition, I don't think you develop it, I think you're born with it (this girl in my grade died from that condition at 14, she was really sporty, maybe that was the stress factor?) and she's had a plentiful film career. Too bad, I'd rather have one Bridget Fonda on screen than 100 Megan Foxes.

IMDB says she recently was in a reality tv show called Battleground Earth: Ludacris vs. Tommy Lee. I did some searching on the internet and IMDB is the only site that states this. Other sites tell me that Jane Fonda is indeed in this show, but they never say anything about Bridget, so my guess is that IMDB has the wrong information. I could be wrong though, so if anyone is able to see this show, then please tell if Bridget is in it or not.

I just watched Peter Fonda in "The Passion of Ayn Rand" and it made me think of her and how great she was in "A Simple Plan" and "Jackie Brown"come to think of it, she was good in "Scandal", too. I'd rather see her in a movie than Kate Hudson or Katherine Heigl any day!Please, please, come back

I watched an interview she gave about 2 years ago and she pointed out that she was now 40 something and she could no longer play the 20 year old virgin any more and she is happy with her lifewhere she can do what she wants and eat what she likes without having a producer tell her "she looks fat"

A hole in the heart, is sometimes patched by suturing the sides together. However, this is a supposed pinhole leak. So they probably would use a specialized tool to fix the hole. They cannot use a 'Stent', not a stint. As stents are used in blood vessels and not the heart itself.
This used to be major surgery and a lot of people opted not to get it done. However, I'm pretty sure it might be able to be done laparoscopically. Preferring to lead a calm and relaxed life, like she does. She may opt to get it fixed when her child is older. She may also never have any problems with it. That is, if she even has a pinhole leak. All this is hearsay at this time. She may just have wanted to raise her kid and be with the husband.
BTW, there are a lot of pinhole leaks in most anything, that can happen for any reason. This particular leak could have been as a result of her Jag accident. She might have always had it and it might have been found on a regular doctor visit. Never know, unless she comes out and tells us. Which is her business and no one else's.
One article I read, said that 20% of the people born, have them. So I figure that 20% of the people replying to this thread, also have them.
