    Way to go
    I just can't quite part with my port yet. It's never given me problems and I guess it's turned into some sort of "security blanket." I've been trying to tell myself that after my next dianostic mammo ... assuming it comes out OK ... then I'll start making plans to be deported.

    But ... good for you ... and I'm sure the port site will start feeling better soon.

    hugs.

    Funny subject line!
    Sorry it was a painful procedure but congratulations! I was super happy to be rid of mine. I know the little guy did a great service to me, but I was happy to say good-bye.

    Congrats again!

    Welcome to the Deported Club!
    Sorry it hurt. I was so happy to look down after putting on a tee-shirt and not seeing a "bump".

    Yes, I agree it is painful, and the bruising - Yikes
    But it served your well, and as difficult as it may seem .. it's time to go!!!!!!! The bruising like the incision scar .. will heal in time.

    Now .. time to rest up, and get to live your life.

    By the way, How is your Mom doing?

    Another of those things--
    good for its mission, but not really sorry to see it go. I'm hoping the soreness subsides soon for you.

    So happy to hear that you are port-less! I am sorry you had to experience pain, though. I can't wait to get mine out! I want it out of me in the worst way. But I have to wait, so congratulations on your graduation!
