18 Mar Update
Keegan has a PICC line now, but we're not too happy with it. This is really, really hard to explain to people who have never seen or dealt with one. It kinda looks like a massive IV line coming out of the crook...

16 Mar Update
The port removal itself actually went well today, despite the fact that we were rushed off to it unexpectedly this morning. All night long, I would ask the nurse if she had heard a time from the OR with no luck. At 5am,...
16 Mar Update
Just a quick update tonight to let y'all know that we still don't have an OR time for tomorrow. Since removing his line should be fairly quick, he will likely be squeezed in between procedures tomorrow, and our time could change anyway. He...

07 Mar Update
Keegan had a very long day today. He slept pretty well overnight - just the usual diaper changes, vital checks, and venting his g-tube to ease his discomfort. He seems to be quite fond of the super-soft mattress in his crib here. ...
06 Mar Keegan Update: Live from Boston!
Hello All…This blog update will cap off a very good but long day. Keegan slept well for the most part last night. He woke up a few times with some air that needed venting but there was no vomiting. He woke up...
