Port is out!
 
I got my port out yesterday, ouch! A little more painful then putting it in. Found myself getting teary eyed realizing that I am now on my own (except for tamax). Dr let me keep it for my scrap book, I think all the nurses thought I was crazy, but I had it with me for a year, kind of attached to it. Here's to the next stage of moving on, hopefully with less tears.

I took my port home too and used it for show and tell with my health classes. They had seen the "bump" where it was and I had shown them the basic process using visuals. They thought it was kind of cool to see it. I kept mine for month or two and threw it away. I celebrated getting it out. Blessings to you. I hope that you remain NED. I have been blessed to be NED 4 years now.
