low fevers

Both lumens of Colleen's Broviac were infected, but not her port. We dislike the broviac, and want it out as soon as possible. The discussion was it could come out after she is done with the TPN I.V. Feedings. Just when she was starting to eat a bit more, including protein foods, and the nutritionist discussed ending the TPN within the week (at clinic on MONDAY), she goes and gets sick! This morning her port isn't drawing blood, although it flushes, that is all we need at home if it is accessed, and her port was NOT infected. She continues to have low fevers, 99 or 100s. Not very "bright-eyed" today, I suspect her fever will go up again this afternoon. Thank you for your prayers.
