To all the reactions about a bruised heart and even the question about its ramifications... It basically means that your heart is just a bit more fragile than normal.  He is already in bed for the splenectomy, so he should be fine.  I got a bruised heart from a hit in lacrosse (yes, it is insane) and I wasn't allowed to do anything for a couple of days.  The doctors said anything that would really getmy heart rate up could result in a heart attack.  Rest for a few days and it is fine.  Bet his ribs hurt like no other, though.
