New wiggle - Aria MacDonald

New wiggle

Aria got a new wiggle this morning.  Everything went smoothly and it is back on her left side.  Quite pleased about that.  All of Aria’s lines have been on her left side until recently.  We were thinking that perhaps access had gone but they said they got it in pretty easily after the 2nd go.  Once you place a line and then remove it it often forms scar tissue over the vein and therefore you can’t place another in the same spot.  Eventually kids like Aria lose places for surgeons to put lines.  Thankfully Aria still has plenty of access despite having a central line since she was 2 weeks old and having two transplants!!   Of course we hope to remove this current line very soon and never require a central line again so hopefully access is either here nor there.

Aria did pretty well came home and slept for a couple of hours given the fact she was woken at 5.30 to go in.  She got a bit emotional when we took her and Asher out for a walk.  Once we got home she asked for some ouchie medicine and that she perked her up a bit.  Oddly enough she vomited a couple of times when she got home.  Likely the General slowed down her gut and she is also on Imodium, so I think we slowed it down a bit too much after it’s frantic dumping of the past months.

Anyway thanks for your prayers.  Please keep them up for Emerson as she recovers.
