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.
