I wonder if I might ask for a handhold please my lovely grandson was born with a very serious heart condition and although he has grown up very well a huge overwhelming infection has overtaken him stemming from a heart valve and today he has had to have an eye removed due to this infection. He is the light of our life and more poor son is understandably totally distraught and I am so afraid we will lose him please could you pray for him the next few days will show how things are going to be thank you so much

Canarygirl thank the Lord for that! What a blessing and such a relief. Will continue to pray for continued improvement for your DGS and strength for the whole family. flowers

hi ladies I wonder if I might ask for your thoughts and prayers hopefully for the last time. Tomorrow afternoon my grandson has surgery to remove his damaged eye and put the ball in place for his artificial eye in a few weeks. At the same time the intention is to seal the leaking valve in his heart which has been so badly damaged by the infection. This has been such a long hard time for the family and have to remain strong for his parents and my husband is not well enough to show much emotion I know you will all understand and I have been so very grateful for your kind support many thanks

canarygirl your DGS has been in my prayers everyday since you first mentioned him. I hope tomorrow's operation goes well and he makes a good recovery. I hope you too will then have a time of peace and rest because you must be exhausted with worry. Thinking of you all x

And in my thoughts canary girl - such a dreadful time for you all and particularly your little grandson and his parents. I'm sure your husband is holding all his emotions in trying to help - I hope he improves too.

My thoughts are with you and your dear grandson and all your family canarygirl.

Canarygirl1 Thu 01-Nov-18 22:21:15

thank you so much for kind thoughts I see in first post mentioned eye would be removed in that instance they did whatever they do to try and save the valve but it didnt work and the eye has died so now will go. If all goes well his new eye went fitted in a few weeks acually moves like the other one how clever is that! Am off to bed now as husband is exhausted expect the world service on radio will come to rescue during the night. I will let you know tomorrow evening how things go and again thank you

Thinking of you and your family at this worrying time ?

grannyqueenie Fri 02-Nov-18 08:02:06

Whar a lot you’ve all had to cope with, especially that little boy. Praying that surgery goes well today and that he’ll recover well. It must be hard when your husband can’t fully shoulder the emotional burden with you.

Auntieflo Fri 02-Nov-18 08:09:31

Canarygirl, adding my prayers to the prayer chain that is for your little grandson. To you, your DH and family also, my thoughts are with you today. God bless.
