Good decision to get the port implanted. It should make the next visits much better.
More prayers for you both.

It wasn’t my decision. Dr. Lu, my oncologist, insisted. It was explained to me in detail, and I was able
to handle a sample port and she said exactly what its function was and where it would be inserted.

I was armed (no pun intended) and ready for it when they inserted it. I do have some bleeding wounds,
probably from the Heparin they use to irrigate the port after chemo, but other than that, it went exactly
as expected.

Yes, thank you, Dear Man. My next sixteen visits for chemo will be very routine by the time we go to
the last one. Your prayers are keeping me alive and kicking, I truly believe it.
