My brother just went through open heart surgery last month, and now he's been battling pneumonia for two weeks. He's been admitted to the ICU due to breathing issues. They did an ECG and discovered his heart function is down to 24. I'm really worried, and I'm wondering if we could take him on an 11-hour flight to the USA to address this situation. What do you think?
