Aria got her line today!!!
We are very proud to announce the arrival of Aria’s new line today.
After a couple of days of umming and ahhing over if and when it would be done, and after some good chasing up by our On Call Consultant we got into surgery about lunch time today. It took about an hour from ‘go to sleep’ time to ‘wakey wakey’ time.
As usual she was very dozy and a little grumpy after the surgery but after some good sleeps with dad, she was up and at it again. It is really interesting how much better mood she was in post surgery, I am not sure what it was (perhaps it felt like things were back to normal having a line back in) but she was in awesome spirits and back to her old self.
This also means TPN can start again and home time is fast approaching. We have a couple of procedures to help boost Aria’s system tomorrow and then, all going well, we expect to be home tomorrow night. YAY!!! So please pray that there would be no complications such as temperatures in the mean time and that we will be able to come home and have a nice looooooooooong period out of hospital. (Hopefully the next time we go to a hospital will be for the arrival of #2 in December).
This has been a new experience for us dealing with replacing a line, so thanks for all the prayers for our strength and for Aria’s health while we have been in, we know that it makes a huge difference to us.
