Sporting a new appliance

The old "wires"


Been a busy day! Steve and I appreciate all the help and prayers today. Brooke is on IV antibiotics every 6 hours to ward off infection. At 4pm they sedated her and removed the broken broviac and then placed the new port. It took an hour and a half. Not too shabby! She woke up kickin and screamin! I couldn't even hold her she was squirming so bad. She relaxed once back in her room and played with her toys and hammed it up. At about 7:30p she put her hand on her chest and said "owie mamma." My poor baby! But other than that she hasn't been to bothered by it. They are using the port already and we wait til morning and see what her blood cultures say and see what the MD's say. At this moment she is sleeping (9:30pm). We'll pray she last the night.
