Today when Jesse and I went for labs the decision was made to move the surgery up to tomorrow. We had to stick her arm to get labs. Her numbers came back great.
In preparation she had her peripheral veins checked via ultrasound to make sure there were no clots. We also met with her surgeon. Luckily we were able to have the same surgeon who placed the first line. He talked with me about going through her juggler into the super vena cava. He also talked about the collapsing of her lung that occurred during the first surgery. He also talked about potential clots and the fear of breaking the clots loose.
More than likely he will not use the same access place. It sounds like the line will be move to the right side of her body.
Her surgery is at 12:15 tomorrow. I am going to try to work with them to have her asleep or uncaring by the time she has to go to the OR.
If it does turn out she has clots in and around her neck, the CVL will then be tunneled into leg with the exit on her stomach.
I am praying she has no clots and that her surgery tomorrow will be very easy and uncomplicated.
