Hi all, My surgeon's office called yesterday and asked if I wanted to get this port out, and I said, "oh, yes!!!!' I went today at 10am. It hurt like h#$%#*&, but it's out. I bled quite a bit, which concerned them at first. He said it's because of the blood thinners. He also said I will get to go off them in December and he said then I can really enjoy Christmas CANCER FREE. I loved the sound of that. I pray that it never returns.......I can't dwell on that though. I really enjoy life and my family and my church and I truly love God and know He has my best interests at heart. I love all you guys too. You've meant the world to me. It's because of you all and my other friends that I'm still here. Your prayers reached Heaven and He listened. I'm doing a little better every day. I hope you all are too. Talk to you soon.
Love and prayers, Judy(grandma047)

    Judy,

    That is GREAT NEWS!!!!!! I am so happy for you!!!!! You have had one H--- of rough time but as I knew you would you are getting through it --One Step At a Time!!!!!! I am so happy you are feeling better!!! Your post sounds so upbeat!!! It is a great up lift for me know that we can fight this and win!!!!!!Bob is fighting this with everything he has!!!! I hope that you have a WONDERFUL holiday season and get all your Christmas shopping done without to much stress!!! Start NOW!!!! Do me a favor when you get out in the Malls and you see some kid with their pants down to there knees -- pull them down for me and give yourself a big laugh!!!! I know that when I pick there kids up on the bus in the morning and they can't pick there legs up to get up the steps I just wish that I could pull them down but being a bus driver you can't touch any of these kids in any way. I have always wanted to do that and you can do it for me!!!!

    Keep up the GREAT work!!!!

    Best wishes!!!!!!!

    Sue
