What does the PICC line look like, you ask? Here you go! There is a sleeve that covers it up when we are not using it -- here are photos with the sleeve in use and withdrawn.

WOW ...what a lucky PICC that is to be in the arm of THE strong, mighty SUPERMAN BEN. Thanks to the PICC which will accept all the meds and stuff that is going to fight those bad guys in his tough body.
Only problem is the fighting going on with all the hospital nurses who want to be Ben's favorite because he is so very ADORABLE, sweet, and brave!
Ben and David, one favor is that you go easy on your Daddy in chess ... !
Hooray if this goes through ...only tried 20 times a day to send a comment.
Hugs and love to you all,
Grandmom
Hey Ben,
Your Grandmom is right you are so strong! You should know that we all miss you so much and can't wait for you to come back to school! I promised my friends that I would tell you "hi" from Miss Thomas' class=-) I also wanted to tell you that I signed up to particpate in the Nautica Malibu Triathlon and I am training with Team in Training to raise money for the Luekemia & Lymphoma Society. Today was my first training run and I met so many wonderful people whom I shared your story with and they are keeping you in their thoughts and prayers!! WE MISS YOU BEN!!
Love,
Miss Thomas & My K-1 Friends
