Tonight Joe and I took his Dad (Grandpa Louis) to see Jayan. I'm glad he got to see the baby.

They tried again to get a picc line in Jay (since they slowed his feeds down he needs an IV back in). The poor guy is just out of spots so they may have to put in a Broviac Line. This is a central line that will be a lot easier and they won't have to poke him as much. There's one upsetting part of this and that is he will have to go back on the ventilator to have this put in. This is because he will be sedated as it's considered a surgical procedure. This isn't for sure yet but they are talking about it.

If he ends up going back on the ventilator it should only be for a short time as he's doing ok on the nasal cannula and should wean back to that fast.

Another day in the NICU another day on the rollercoaster but we're getting there.

And what a rollercoaster it is!

I hope they can get the line in without a problem and give the little guy what he needs.

You guys are in my prayers.
