Red face PORT Placement tomorrow morning at 10:00 AM

Hey Guys,

Wish me luck tomorrow(Friday, Sept 22nd) 10:00 am EST, I will be having my port placement done. Think of me !! Yesterday I had the blood draw done for the gentetic testing, which will take 28 days from the time they begin the test. This coming Monday,the 25th is my second chemo. Whoa...it is a busy several days focusing on cancer....Can't wait till Tuesday gets here and it is all over again for a little while !

One last update...shaved my head this week..I look like I am ready for boot camp !
