I HEART Central Lines
Yes I am thinking of getting a t shirt made! The joke last admission with Nurse C and Dr E was getting a t shirt for Hamish saying ‘TPN Guru’. Aria’s t shirt says ‘Warning No Ganglion Cells included’ and mine must be ‘I Heart Central Lines’ with a picture of a heart.
This by far has been the most difficult admission excluding the very first one. There are few things worst than your baby having needles put in her veins repeatedly, it is really sore and she cries a lot. It must be the worst job in the world for those poor doctors who have to try to find a vein in a screaming baby’s foot/arm/leg.
Aria’s lost her leur tonight that was sitting in her foot and she had to get another in her hand. ๐
There have been noises about her getting a new central line tomorrow and we are praying madly that that happens. But it will happen Thursday at any rate.
Aria’s kept her first central line for so long that this is the first experience we have had at losing it and getting a new one. We could have been thru this 3-4 times!!! Thank God we haven’t. I mean that in the sincere way — we are very thankful.

Nola Young says:You are never out of my thoughts and prayers. Sorry I am not nearer. You will be delighted in the midst of all the trauma to have some new conversation from our precious little Miss. Give her a special hug from me. I like the T shirt idea. T-shirts are all the go over here – seems to be one produced for every possible occasion!! some people must have draws full!
Do hope that central line gets in and functions beautifully.
Our love and prayers, Nola, Andrew and John
