Deported...

Now you see it (if you want a real good picture of it go here)...

Now you don't...
Unless of course you take a look in this little sterile urine sample cup (what???)...
Is that weird that I asked to keep it? For my credit, I asked if I could keep it while I was totally under the influence of some wonderful drug that made me feel like I was floating in the sky. I mean, it's been with me for the past 9 months... I guess I felt like throwing it in the trash was a little harsh... or maybe I just wanted a cool souvenir?
The doctor who took it out was the same doctor that put it in. He said that one lady kept hers and took the rubbery center out and put a jewel in there, and wore it as a necklace...


Don't worry... I wont be sporting a power port necklace any time soon. Purple really isn't my color.
Thank you power port for saving my arm. I highly recommend getting a port if you are ever in the situation to need one (I hope you never are though...).

I always meant to blog about my port. When I asked to keep it the surgeons were surprised, but agreed. Were you awake for yours? It was kind of weird, and I had my headphones in for the whole thing. You had the same port as me, by the way.
