The PICC line is in! Thanks for your prayers. The line is in a vein on the back of Eden's head/neck. The line would normally run all the way to the heart, and Eden's line was only able to go as far as the base of her neck/shoulder area, but it was judged to be good enough with only a dangerous surgical option left.
It was a good day otherwise, too. No xrays were done because Eden's symptoms with her intestinal condition were favorable. Also, Eden's weight surpassed her birth weight for the first time, weighing in tonight at 2 pounds, 14 oz. An added advantage to the PICC line will be a greater capacity for delivering nutrition intravenously.
So, a good day. Thank you, Lord. And thank you again for your prayers.
