Better luck next time

The docs put in an order in to try and have the PICC line placed again. It's def more cost effective and less invasive to have the placement done at bedside without image guidance (although the nurse did use a portable utlrasound today) but that didn't seem to work out so well. So plan B is to have the placement done in radiology in an operating room tomorrow using ultrasound or x-ray guidance and sedation. They will stop feeds at 6am and the PICC line should be placed around noon.

Daddy is playing with Alex right now letting her suck on the suction tube. It's just like the suction they use when you go to the dentist and she's making all kinds of funny sounds. She slept most of the afternoon and seems to be in better spirits tonight. It's hard to go home without our baby but we all need some rest and have another big day ahead of us tomorrow.
