This is Floris. He is the 6 year old son of my sister. For years now he has suffered from this kidney insufficiency and from today they will start running new tests on him, to find out why he reacts so strangely to his medicines.

So even though it is for a good cause, my lil' heroe will have to undergo surgery AGAIN tomorrow.

So keep him in your thoughts.

And it looks like you all did! I want to thank you for keeping him in your thoughts. The surgery went well and he was allowed to go home the day after!

So he is home again!

Again, thanks for all the good vibes; I am sure it helped!

(Kids should never have to deal with that crap.)

will do, I'll keep him in my thoughts poor thing, i hate to think of little children going through operations, he is a brave little boy

The horrible part is is that he is so used to being hospitalised, he wasn't even nervous...

He is six years old, but he has got the self awareness of a teenager and that is what hurts me most; all he wants to be is like all the other kids.

I hope his reality somehow gets to more of being able to just be a kid and less of all of this.

Hard to be like the kids definitely if you're struggling with all it sounds like he's having to.

I'll be thinking of him!

Thank you both!

You are good peeps!

will ndo mate.
all the best to your nephew and your family
