The mystery of the low blood sugar has been fixed. I'm not exactly sure what was wrong but magically the problem went away after they hung the new bag of TPN. My mom suspects there was insulin added by accident.
The doctors decided to pull his picc line out and give him a new one. They were going to just put the new one in his left arm but he has too much scar tissue. The only other option is to put Hone catheter in his neck. This is something completely new for us. My mom has never even heard of one, and I guess it doesn't really matter as long as it works. Hopefully it will last longer than a couple months. I spoke to Tim this morning and they were getting ready to take him down to the procedure. He should have it by the time I get up there to see him this afternoon.
On an unrelated note, my brother and his wife are back in town for their friend's wedding! They can only visit with us for a couple of days but I am oh so happy to see them. It lifts my spirits and I know it does the same for Tim.
