Lauren was awake for most of the day. Had a great beginning and middle and a rough later. Yesterday afternoon her IV went out on her, so off for the search for the IV gooroo we went. This time it only took three specialists and 7 sticks but she got it. Then this afternoon it went out again. After finding no other veins they got the approval to put in a PICC. It's a catheter that goes in a vein and ends in the heart. It's safe and one of the best ways to get her her meds. She had two previously. Unfortunately, Lauren screamed almost the entire time, ripping my heart out.
She was very tired, uncomfortable, and sad until just now. Got her to finally to sleep. Hopefully sh will get a great night of sleep and feel super in the morning.
I have been prayign so much for Lauren. Watching someone you love go through pain that you know there is no way around, and no way to help, is just a terrible feeling. I'm so sorry :(
ReplyDeleteIt is so draining being in the hospital, wanting to tell the medical team to stop hurting your baby, but knowing it has to be done. I know exactly how you feel. Stay strong! Your doing amazing!
ReplyDeleteI hope you and Lauren rested well last night and that today is full of beautiful Mommy and daughter moments.
ReplyDeleteThanks ladies! You are all so right. Mom, appreciate it. We already had a great snuggle earlier.
