The tap has been completed. They did not leave a catheter in to avoid risk of infection.
The fluid was a straw colour similar to urnine. Still no confirmation on what it is. They removed 250cc (I think this is the same as ml's). This released the pressure somewhat, however Julie tells me that he is still quite bloated. Unfortunalety I didn't get to the hospital in time to see him.
Will's vital signs were all good during the procedure, so no immediate problems.
They decided to do the procedure first thing as they were concerned about the pressure on the kidneys, bladder etc. as he had stopped passing urine during the night. They do not think that the fluid is urine, rather, they think the pressure stopped blood flow to the kidneys and therefore Will wasn't able to process as norminal.
Doing the procedure early also avoided conflict with their daily operating schedule.

Hi Harry,
Have just been catching up on the situation, and needless to say Anita and I are very distressed to know what you and Jules and little Will are going through right now. Our thoughts and prayers are going out to you, and hopefully everything will be alright. Perhaps some good old fashioned Irish prayers and (a bit of Irish luck!) will come in to play. Hang in there - know that we'll be praying for you all.
All our love, Ted and Anita
Still thinking of you, praying constantly. Checking your updates regularly, thanks for keeping us so well informed. God bless you all and especially little Will. Love McCarthys.
A big loving welcome to Will - keep on fighting little man!
And what a great name! Really moved by the explaination. But you will have quite a job convincing Will Snr to believe it.
My thoughts and love are with you all, a special hug to you Jules and love the PJs.
Stay strong, you've got the big guy on your side!
Love always, Ange
JJ is praying for baby Will constantly. Last night, he prayed for baby Isaac and baby Will and he said " please help baby Will especially because he is my friend's brother...". Davis prayed, without prompting, for Auntie Juleeee. You are all in our thoughts. Love, Chengs
