Al, I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't imagine the pain.
My second daughter had a heart defect, with open heart surgery at Bristol Children's Hospital. She was lucky and was ok, but there was a moment when the same thing happened - alarms going off because her heart stoped, with people rushing in. After the operation she had 29 cables coming out of her, just like you've described.
I remember the weekly appointments, the general sense of fear and dread. On the ICU ward I met other parents whose children sadly didn't come through like ours did. I'm sorry that you had that experience, and lost your darling son.
