NO PORT PAIN!!
Yay for no pain when they accessed it. For those of you who have never seen a port, there is a picture below. It is implanted under the skin on the chest. My mom's is a double lumen which means theres basically 2, so you can imagine the lumpiness on her tiny frame. We are praying for decreased discomfort from it and that her body get used to it being there. She did say it was much better than having multiple IV sticks like the first time.

So like Hannah said yesterday on Facebook "Prayers for my mommy today. she will be kicking some cancer butt back where it came from!" I love it, so simple, and SO true.
She will be getting a ECHO of her heart (because one of the drugs Adriamycin is hard on the heart) and repeat CT/PET scan, and meeting with Dr. Munoz again in the next 2-3 weeks. So July will be full of lots of testing, and in turn lots of GOOD news:)
Thank you again for all your encouragement, meals, prayers, etc!!
