Afternoon update - post PICC line procedure

We rejoice that Jacob's PICC line was successfully inserted this morning. The procedure took a little over an hour and he is now resting back in his room. His mommy is also attempting to get a little rest, too, which is much needed. While waiting for the procedure this morning, we ran into Dr. Jallo, the neurosurgeon who performed Jacob's tethered cord surgery last fall. We mentioned our concern with Jacob's right foot, so he has agreed to stop by and check it out this afternoon. Also, it appears that Jacob's next surgery, the bladder closure, will take place in about three weeks instead of two, to allow time for any necessary adjustments to the fixator that is on his pelvis and to see if anything changes with his right foot.

Please continue to uphold Jacob in prayer, especially our concern over the lack of movement in his right foot.

In Christ, and Him Alone,

Daddy BA
