Removing the port

Today I had my port removed in the Dr.'s office. I was worried before I went in but it was a very easy procedure. I will continue to have Rituxin in my good veins but no more port ever I hope!!!!!!! I had it in a year while battling NHL follicular lymphoma. Stage 3A. I feel very happy today and glad it is gone. SO if you are facing that it is very easy. I am having a blessed day:)

    Thanks Tracie. I had a great day until the meds wore off. Then it hurt and I am home today but I'll be back at school tomorrow with my 20 5th graders:) God bless you on your journey.
