Looks like Zoe is going to need a new port - not the news we wanted to hear today. We didn't get a ton of information today - we expect to know more after talking with the surgeon or oncologist sometime soon. What we did learn is that the vein the catheter is in has closed off, causing the catheter to angle the wrong direction - this is all likely because of a clot although a visible clot couldn't be seen in the images today.
AND to top that off, we were told that Zoe had to fast for the procedure today. Keep in mind that she has already had to fast several times this past month for various procedures/tests - not fun... She's three... and she sobbed and sobbed this morning telling me that she was really thirsty. Thankfully I had the Branch's care package stashed away for such an occasion and was able to pull out some Littlest Pet Shop magic. It was probably a good thing that the lady who told me she had to fast wasn't working today when we found out that indeed she did NOT actually need to fast. Seriously, people?!...
Oh man! I would have been mad! Don't Littlest Pet Shop pets fix everything?
ReplyDeleteI understand that everyone makes a mistake now and then -- but you just don't make a mistake like that with a three year old -- ever.
