While attempting to flush her Broviac line last night (part of the daily routine), Kristi and Randy detemined that one of the leads must be blocked, so they went to the hospital clinic this morning to have the doctors there work on clearing the line.
While the line got cleared, it also sprung another leak, so a quick trip to the clinic turned into admission day, as Greta will now need to recieve 24 hours of antibiotics. The doctors don't feel the line is worth repairing for a third time, and have decided to remove it tomorrow. Her new Broviac line was scheduled to be put in this Friday, however they are now hoping to be able to put in a new one tomorrow, when the old one is removed. Greta should be starting her 8th round of chemo once the new line is inserted, so it looks like she'll be at DeVos through sometime Monday or Tuesday.
Yesterday's PET scan in Ann Arbor went well, and we are anxiously awaiting the results, which we hope to have by the end of this week.
