Getting Her PICC Line

Well, Julianne is getting her PICC line now. It should take about an hour to two hours so we thought this was a good time to go across the street and post some pictures and videos since we're not allowed to be in the room while they're doing the procedure. By the way, I found out PICC stands for Peripheral Inserted Central Catheter. Its an IV that they put in through a regular vein but then they thread it all the way to either the superior or inferior vena cava (these are the two large veins coming off of the heart). Anyway, just thought I'd explain that because this explanation helped me understand it a little better. :) Other than the PICC line, the only news today is that Julianne seems to be doing well. Her heart rate has not gone too high, in fact, its gone a little too low a couple of times today but nothing major. Julianne's blood pressure has been good as well.

Here are the new pictures and videos:
