Time For A Central Line...still no food

Micah's nurse just came in and told me that they are taking Micah back to 8 South (CICU), but not to stay. They are going to place a central line in his neck. This is a larger IV and less likely to blow and have to come out, like the little ones he goes though to quickly. With the larger IV they will be able to give him more IV fats and calories, and hopefully, this will make him feel a little more satisfied. The plan is still to start feeds on Tuesday, and I'm just counting the seconds until that happens. (172800 seconds until Tuesday) Micah has very little energy today and the cardiology team has noticed his lack of energy too. They are making sure he stays comfortable, and going to put in the central line, but their hearts are breaking too. I really hope the next two days fly by.
