Goodbye Hickman! You won't be missed!!!!!

Logan is back home today after having his Hickman tubes removed.  Here are the photos I took before his procedure...  as you can tell he is super happy to be there!!!

And check it out!  His hair is growing back!!!

It recently occurred to me that I haven't posted photos of him lately.  Hopefully this collection will make up for my oversight.  

One last photo of the Hickman to remember it by.  This has been a source of pain and anxiety for almost a year.  He dreaded the dressing changes and refused to lay on his stomach for fear of crushing it.  He would always prevent anyone (including health care professionals) from touching his chest and was super vigilant about cleaning it before allowing anyone to access his lines.  These two tubes have also prevented him from enjoying his favorite sport... SWIMMING!  Just a little more healing from the removal and he will be good to go this summer for whatever water adventures await!
