Porta-cath tomorrow at 10am


We have to be at Banner Gateway at 8:30am for the prep of the surgery!

WELL... the slicing open of the skin to place the port in !!!! lol

Luckily Mathew will be sedated and hopefully know NOTHING!!!!

Unlike all the experience of the colonoscopy.. OUCH!


This is a great time to move forward and be positive about the whole situation.. This is just a step forward to get the Chemo going and the Cancer to STOP!

Thank you all again for the outpouring of love and support to not only Mathew and I but to our children too.

Family, friends and friends of friends.. thanks to you all..


The many blessings that have come and keep coming to us are amazing.

We must stay strong and fight this..
I need Mathew back in the kitchen at work !!!!! lol

Hope it all goes well. The idea of having that portacath in there is sort of gross, but at least it will be a good tool in fighting the cancer. It really is a great invention.

Hope all went well. A Portacath sure beats having IV Chemo! It's also better than a central line. Janna had a central line, and I had to change her dressing every three days and flush it twice a day with Heparin for 15 months, and no swimming!
