Has anyone had or know of someone who had a small leak after lap RNY?

I have a friend who went in for lap RNY (PADDY, of this site) They found a small leak the morning after surgery. I know one person that has had this problem, and had serious complications. Her surgeon is keeping her in the hospital all week and says that the small hole will probably heal itself, but wants to keep an extra eye on it. Has anyone else had a similar situation, or know of someone who has? I am looking for some encouraging words to take to her in the hospital when I go to visit later today. Thanks in advance!!
