Maybe you could try to do a series of dilate operations that would close
your borders, than run the "fill holes" and than erode the same number
of times you dilated before, something like this:

iterations = 5;
run("Options...", "iterations="+iterations+" count=1 edm=Overwrite
do=Nothing");
run("Dilate");
run("Fill Holes");
run("Erode");
