I've been to visit Vin a couple of times in hospital and he his in his usual good spirits.
He has fluid on his lungs caused by a faulty heart valve .
They're keeping him in for tests and observations he's been there since last Wednesday night, and yesterday his understanding was, that they intend to operate this Wednesday, so, it's not exactly a by-pass operation.
They don't seem to know whether he has had this fault all his life ,or, whether it has recently developed .
That's really as much as I can tell you - but I will try to keep you posted .
