Not Your Typical Valentines Day

Posted on February 18, 2025 by under Life.    

PICC Line Gone  

Brian’s followup appointment with Dr. Chris Dakhil happened to fall on Valentines Day. I went with him to it and also his IV hydration treatment immediately following.

It’s not really how anyone would want to celebrate Valentines Day but it was a great day overall. He got his PICC line removed finally!

He has recently started eating a little bit. He still heavily relies on his feeding tube but we are hoping that once he is mostly eating by mouth then he can get the feeding tube removed as well. We are both looking forward to that day. I think he is so ready to put all this behind him.

One the feeding tube is out and it is safe to do so, we are celebrating with a couples massage. In the meantime, we are just taking it one step and day at a time.
