[QUOTE="GMN, post: 521758, member: 2382"] Well. yesterday he had the surgery, microscopic, and they went in thru a small opening and were able to get all the buildup out around his lung, and discovered some also around his heart. It was attached like jelly around one total lung, and just a bit around the heart. He will be in ICU for several days now, with induced pain, and sleep medicine. he had to get another drainage tube put in, to relieve any more additional fluid build up around the heart. They told the parents he was in for a fight. This procedure won't cure the pneumonia, but it will help the IV antibiotics do the job they need to. He will need a chest X-ray every day, and will be in the hospital another 10 days at least. If this procedure for some reason wasn't effective they will have to open his chest up and do more. I sure hope this works, I get teared up just thinking about the lil guy going thru all these procedures. His doctor told the parents that he has done 18 of these procedures since january, so that tells you how bad this bug is. Gail [/QUOTE]
