Well they found infection in Bridger's blood and it settled in his PICC line, so it was removed today. They can't place another PICC until the infection is cleared so the doctors spent four hours trying to place an arterial line today. They tried his right wrist, right groin, right foot and finally found success in his left foot. So after some medicine to paralyze him and several sedatives to keep him calm, we are trying to let him rest in order to recover from the whole ordeal. Hopefully we can start strengthening his lungs again after he recuperates from today.
Thanks for everyone's concern,
Love Staci

4 hours?!? What the crap! Poor kid. I'm not sure I'd like to get stuck with needles for 4 hours. I'm sorry it was a long day for both of you. I hope he can get his rest in and just work on getting over the infection in his blood. Then maybe he can work on his lungs and his heart.
By the way Stac...I'm NOT a whore!!
Wow, this is taking a lot of patience. I am really sorry that you had to deal with another setback. Bridger will get through this and so will you.
Love, grandma
