    I spent most of my festive season bedside with my 4 year old who had a serious case of pneumonia with pleural effusion (fluid build up), whilst my mother in-law was the other end of the country after a heart attack and acute renal failure, so I know all about crap presents being put into perspective. I wouldn't wish that worry on anyone. Like many others I'll be waiting to hear news from you and hoping very much for the best.
    What a terrible christmas for you too. I hope they are both on the mend.

    they have left him with an "open wound" so that they can drain the excess fluid which is putting pressure on his heart.

    This happened to us in the situation I PM'd you about. I know it doesn't sound nice and it doesn't look pretty but keep telling yourself this is part of what will save his life.
