Blessings and Strength
 A Time To Believe To believe is to know that every day is a new beginning. It is to trust that miracles happen, and dreams really do come true. To believe is to see angels dancing among the clouds To know the wonder of a stardust sky and the wisdom of the man in the moon. To believe is to know the value of a nurturing heart, The innocence of a child's eyes and the beauty of an aging hand, for it is through their teachings we learn to love. To believe is to find the strength and courage that lies within us. When it is time to pick up the pieces and begin again. To believe is to know we are not alone, That life is a gift and this is our time to cherish it. To believe is to know that wonderful surprises are just waiting to happen, And all our hopes and dreams are within reach. "If only we believe" Author Unknown

Finally got my chemo port out yesterday! Nice to have that reminder, gone!
Soon I will have another colonoscopy and then I will feel completely in the clear!

Hey DapperButch, Having that chemo port out must be a reason to Celebrate...:wine: My friend Milana heads to surgery for her second one in on Monday. Infection at 1st port site, and she has only 3 more sessions. Every day is such an adventure, and your upcoming colonoscopy is one of the favorite things you can do, and I KNOW YOU WILL BE THRILLED WHEN IT IS OVER..  Had mine several weeks ago, and got the best report. Doc said "Your colon is boring. See you in 5 years." So, keeping my fingers crossed that all the tests, MRI, US, lab work over the last month match the negative colonoscopy results. |

DapperButch, a question about your chemo port...did you ever consider leaving it in or was it a no brainer for you as far as having it removed? My thinking is that it's yet another surgery.

It was a really simple surgery. They don't put you under like they do when getting it inserted. My doc just gave me a local, cut me about 1.5 inches, and then popped it out. Easy peasy. I asked to look at it b/c I was curious. It just looked like a large tadpole! And there really isn't much pain afterwards, either. I had some serious pain for a few days when they put it in b/c they have to push and pull on the muscle, but no pain really after it came out. I don't think I even took a Tylenol. ETA: It is funny that someone posted on this thread today. I have my colonoscopy tomorrow...so I going through the "prep" right now. sucks ass. no pun intended.

Hi sending positive energy to you both, if you have a PICC line it can stay is for a short time, a power port can remain two years and longer as long as it is accessed and flushed every four weeks, and it stay clear of any infections. Power ports are ideally the best for long term chemotherapy IMO they have far less risk of infection. Leaving a
for those who are fighting and those who are caring for them.
