PICC Line In!

They were able to get the PICC line in, and today he started his TPN nutrition.

Surgery is still planned for this evening, but right now we are waiting for Dr. Duke to get back from College Station where he was inducted to the Corp of Cadets Hall of Fame today. What a resume that man has! Tonight he will do the routine wash out and also insert a chest tube to drain some fluid from around dad's lungs. Mom has signed the permission slip for the trach, but we do not know when they will actually do it.
