Hi Sheila,

Glad you got your port put in. It must be easier with all the poking and prodding you must go through. I never had a port so don't know anything about them. I pray I never have to know but if this disease would ever veer it's ugly head again, I would have too as my left arm could not go through all that again. The veins in that arm aren't wonderful after receiving 8 cycles of chemo and 1 year of herceptin.

So, dear lady, glad it's over and life will be a bit easier for you - - - - - at least as far as "vein hunting" goes!!!!!

Love & Peace,

Mary Jo
