Day-5 New PICC Line Replaces 6 IV’s

Posted on December 25, 2013 by admin in Hayley's Journey, Hayley’s TP/AIT - TP/AIT, Pancreatectomy with Auto-Islet Transplant No Comments

Day-5

Hayley is a little more coherent today.  I still doubt she’ll remember much.

Leg compression bandages came off most of the day

We had to ask to have the pain meds turned up again in the night.

She still cannot get comfortable.  Everywhere she turns HURTS and there are wires, cables… Nurses are still moving her with the drop “thing”.  It is getting easier.

She is able to make SMALL adjustments in bed to try and find comfort but if she tries too hard then its not possible.’

Hayley got her first PICC today. They gave her Ativan to relax (See returning Video)

Returning From PICC Insertion

PICC Line Replaces IV’s

Hayley went for an ultrasound today to (See Video)

They were trying to see why Hayley’s arm puffed out so much at the PICC area.  Turns out she had a blood Clot

They Moved all her IV’s– (3)- arm IV’s &  (1)-foot IV- to Central PICC Line –(See Video)

We were informed of a bacterial that has infected her islets they are not sure which one it is yet

Hayley was up walking with again assistance.  I know the epidural is holding back a lot of the pain so today and tomorrow I expect a change in her pain tolerance.

They are putting in a PICC line as you can the many IV lines are popping and falling out.

    Hayley Devoe – CBC Radio Interview – Jun 18, 2013

    listen

    This is a radio interview done with CBC Radio Edmonton from the Alberta Stollery Children's Hospital May 31st, 2013. The interview was done one month after her 13 hour (TP/IAT) Total Pancreactomy & Auto Islet Transplant. By this time Hayley should have had a lot less pain than she was experiencing but we were remaining optimistic. Hayley had opportunity to do both radio and TV interviews to talk about being the 2nd child in Canada to undergo this type of rare surgery and also bring raise awareness to the wrath of Chronic Pancreatitis and the TP/IAT procedure. Hayley chose not to do any further interviews to support the surgery because she already knew in her heart that the surgery was NOT doing what it was supposed to. The surgery was done with almost no pre-testing. Looking back I am now wondering what did the doctor base his positive comment on? His words were that he was 99.9% sure that the surgery was going to help Hayley's pain considerably and maybe even stop it altogether! Never did he say it could make it worse...
