Pickle! This is my newest accessory: a Power-glide mid-line. It is like an IV on steroids.
When I was in Utah, the team that placed my mid-line asked if I had ever named my PICC line that I had had for so long. I hadn't, so this time around I thought I would figure out a name. When I came home, after having the mid-line placed, I walked in the door and Maia was sitting at the table. She leans back and says, "Mommy! Did you get your new Pickle line?" I couldn't help but giggle and the name stuck.
I am now receiving daily IV's to keep me hydrated till I can have a proper feeding tube placed. I have an appointment on the 4th of August with a GI Dr at the Cleveland Clinic and I hope to see a surgeon on the same day and get prepped and ready for the J tube to be placed. It will be interesting to see how the next few weeks go.
