Trey had the surgery to remove his Broviac catheter this morning...WHOO HOO! We were at the hospital by 6:15am and home by 8:30am. Trey did great and is taking a little nap now. The doctor came out after the surgery and handed me the catheter in a bag so we could take it home! A little souvenir of sorts. I just had to attach a picture to show everyone. It is pretty neat to see it now that it isn't in his chest, just hope it is the only one we ever have as a memoir. Getting this out didn't come a day too soon as Trey's chest was so irritated by the adhesive and cleanser that he practically itched the dressing off the other night. Thankfully the tube was still in tact in the morning...Ugh!
Since we were saying goodbye to the tubies this morning, we did a little photo session last night so we can remember it. I included some pictures below. Once Trey is ready, he and Josie are starting at a new "school" together. Trey's first follow up appointment is at the end of this month. We hope for an uneventful visit. :) Lots of prayers and positive vibes for that! I can almost see things heading back towards "normal" sometime in the foreseeable future.
Take Care and Stay Healthy!
