I've now had 48 hours with my new port, and I have to say it's been a bit challenging. Mostly I'm having trouble resting due to the discomfort (okay - pain!). I was able to take my bandage off today and see it - and it's very bizarre to see something poking up from underneath your skin! It sort of looks like a very thick button under there. I guess since I'm somewhat small in the chest area (no cracks people), there's just not alot of place for it to be tucked in.

At any rate, I did my prayer walk this morning (another couple of miles) and it was lovely. The next 5 days or so will be a challenge because I've got events at the church and alot to get done before chemo starts next week. Please pray that I'll know when to stop!

Thank you all for your continued prayers, calls, cards, and gifts. God is good!

And I think your Mother-in-law is a wonderful woman, too! She shared your site with me. This is a wonderful idea and I commend you for it. I am sure it will bless all who read it.
