Calli went back into Intensive Care this morning. They inserted another chest tube and drained 300 cc and had to put in a PICC line (Central Line Care). A PICC line is a long flexible tube that is inserted into a large vein in your arm and then threaded into a large vein above your heart. They inserted the PICC line so they can feed her through it(when you eat the fat in your food produces this fluid called "chyle" that keeps accumulating in her chest so, hopefully this will dry up this fluid instead of using diuretics. We pray that this works because we do not want to go to the alternative step.
We can't express enough how much we appreciate everyone's concern, prayers and fasting. Thanks for your encouraging comments. Love the Clark family
