Already having to fight
I know I haven't updated yet as to why we are back at duke. The short version is riley is very sickMhas an infwction in his picc line and bloostream and due to those, he could not get his broviac today. So,back to duke where they could take the picc out,treat with iv antibiotics for a few days and then have surgeons up here put in a broviac. He couldn't stay at home cause the surgeon was only at oue hospital today and not again until dec11. He HAS to have a central line. So off he went. Well...now that we are at duke, they don't want to removw the line. They want to leave it, treat through it and if infection clears, no broviac. They don't believe the linw needs to be pulled. We aren't doctors. We only know what was told to us at home by people we trust. Argh. Needless to say,a battle has already begun.I'm so aggravated, as if I didn't already have enough stress. I hate it here so bad.

Lindsey, I know you must just be so confused and aggravated...try to just focus on baby Riley and his healing. Trust the doctors and don't lose your faith. Stay strong. Baby Riley, keep fighting little one. God Bless, Love, Pauline
I'm sure this is just so frustrating for you guys! I am praying that the doctors are making the best choices for Riley. Poor little guy has been through so much more than he should already. Let us know if you need anything.
praying.
Lindsey, My heart goes out to you and Jay. Stay strong and ask questions, and demand answers. Riley will do his part and fight like always, he's a tough little guy. It's hard, but you must keep your faith that things will improve, and soon Riley will be feeling better.
Praying for baby Riley, and you and Jay for strength and serenity.
Love & God Bless, Dale
