replacing the porta cath

     I went and finished the treatments on day 3 and they unhooked me,  they decided to skip one of the fanny packs at home since I would have been on chemo for 4 days instead of 3.
Thursday I met with surgeon and we set up the surgery for yesterday, Friday the 11th. I was so nervous cuz now having done it before, I knew what to expect.  It went ok,  even though I had a pic line they still put a IV in cuz they don't like to use the pic line!  more needles crazy huh!!!
   I felt horrible from the chemo on top of it all.  They put me completely out with a tube down my throat this time.  I feel like I was beat up today.  sore from the bottom of my lungs to the top of my neck.  but I am glad to have it over.
     I also want to thank my family and friends for helping me and being with me every step of the way.  I know how hard it is to see someone you love hurt and struggle and it makes emotions high.  I know that Each and everyone of my family members love me and I hope that they can stand together in this process of  the fight for my life.  I am so blessed with such a wonderful family immediate and extended.  and I couldn't ask for better friends.  My dad gave me a beautiful blessing last night my Father in Heaven told me I was doing what I needed to do to return to Health and that I need to ask for His help when I feel I cant cope with the pain and that I would find that the power of prayer was stronger than any medicine could be.  That I would feel relief immediately.  The doctors are being guided in my care and will know what to do throughout this process. and that  I have received many blessings and I have many in store.  He also promised that my body would return to health after this whole process is done... I couldn't ask for a better blessing from my Father in Heaven.  He loves me so much and I felt the Love from him and those that surrounded me.  I am very blessed and I felt So much better afterward.  I was feeling pretty discouraged and couldn't imagine doing this for 6 months.  I was feeling overwhelmed physically, emotionally and my body was tired and I felt week.  I really needed that blessing and my friends and families love :)  I am blessed
