tvordljI fretted and worried all day and finally got to speak to Graham after 6 tonight when he finally got home, made a few calls and had something to eat. His dad seems to be doing well. They have tested his heart thrice over and said his heart is fine. I was concerned about congestive heart failure but that doesn't seem to be the case. They're saying the fluid has been slowly building up for some time which makes sense because he's noticed his legs get tired more easily and his feet swell up sometimes. He's been a bit breathless and sometimes dizzy over the last couple of weeks and had seen the GP who did a test and again, his heart was said to be ok. He was waiting for another lung xray when he had this yesterday, breathing trouble etc.
They've got him in a ward and have diuretic meds pumping in him through the IV and Graham said he's in better spirits today, talking to all and sundry. They're keeping him in over the weekend and maybe letting him home on Tuesday. I'm looking into possibly flying over for a week after the wedding. I may be able to get a fairly good price flying US Airways through Philadelphia, just the one change where most of the other options i've seen were more convoluted and much more expensive. I even thought about flying just in and out of heathrow and making my way north from there but it's still not really much better and i'd still have to get to Manchester from there. Philly seems the best option i think.
