Got my port put in today

[nitewind]

Hi Everyone, well, I made it thru the first step without a problem. Had my port put in this morning! I sure hope the rest of this journey is as easy as today was. I'm a little sore but am applying ice to keep the swelling down, they have to use this thing in the morning for my first chemo! My surgeon is so thorough, he had them take an x-ray after I woke up and then he stayed until he got the results to make sure everything is in place where it's supposed to be. I love my doctor, I told him I wish he could go with me to chemo and he said that he wishes he could too. Still awfully nervous about tomorrow but it will be here and gone soon enough. Just wanted to make sure I let you know that I made it and didn't pass out or cry or anything. Keep me in your thoughts tomorrow morning, please. susan
