Should I get a port?

I have bought shirt front dresses for easy access to my port. I have always said that if I’m going to the slaughter, I’m going well dressed! The nurses always comment on how nice I look.
I wrote everything down in a journal as it happened, so that I could remember the routine each time afterwards. I kept this up throughout the time so I could talk to my oncologist with meaningful information. I kept a record each day of my weight, temperature and symptoms. It’s interesting to look back on now!
All the best for your infusions. Always remember, there is light at the end of the tunnel. It is going to end. Keep that date in your brain, you will get there!

@jenelleseaman
Your dress even matched the chair! Classy!

@jenelleseaman I somehow missed this when you first posted your photo. You certainly are well dressed and beautiful in this photo.
