PICC line questions - A new medical adventure is about to begin.

10. So sorry

First of all let me say how sorry I am for the loss you've suffered.

Your thoughts on the PICC line are spot on! Cleanliness and being vigilant, looking for any changes in the PICC site are so important.
I've had PICC lines in the past and when they could no longer access my veins in my upper arm (too much scar tissue both arms) they placed a Bard Power Port. So so much easier for a few years until I developed bacteria in the line. Sepsis and surgery to remove the port. A second port place after all infection was out of my system.

I'd do it all again. The port that is.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I hope the wonderful memories you surely have of Tommy sustain your heart and that the days are bringing you more good thoughts and comfort.

Sincerely
