T&P for a new mom

I thought I would call in the troops on this one, if you would be so kind!

A dear friend of mine from college just had her second baby, a boy, on Tuesday.  Within a half an hour after she gave birth the baby started turning purple and they found out that he has a heart defect.  One of his heart valves is closed and as a result, he can't pump enough blood to the rest of his body.  They took him immediately to surgery and put in a stint, and for the time being he is doing well, but he still has to under go open heart surgery on Tuesday.

The prognosis is good, but I figure a few extra Ts&Ps and good juju doesn't hurt.  I can't imagine how hard it is right now being in her shoes with a 15 month old at home and multiple trips daily to the NICU.

Thanks again for doin' this!
