Day 3 Mission Accomplished

Today was a tough day. We went to the hospital early this morning to have the PICC line inserted. The radiology folks were able to use some dye to determine what was going on with the veins and it showed that they are a tangled mess around that scar. So--they went directly into her jugular and her "line" is located in her chest.

Following the procedure, we went over to the cancer center so that Cara could get her next treatment. They had sedated her for the procedure, so she was pretty nauseous and had a terrible headache. She rested while she had her treatment. She's pretty much slept since we've been back home, too. This one really wore her out.

I wish there was some way that I could make this easier for her. She's such a great mom and a great person--I hate it that she has to go through this...

More later.
