Hello all!
Friday, the devil port finally came out!!!! I cannot even begin to tell you how excited I am about it! I only had local anesthesia so it was very weird being awake during the entire surgery. Both drs were extremely nice and intelligent. I had some ativan which is an anti-anxiety drug so that kept me nice and "loopy" during the procedure :) They sterilized the port and let me keep it! They thought it was a somewhat strange request but once they opened me up and saw that it was a hot purple titanium port they understood why I wanted it. I think I'm going to make a key chain out of it! Haha. I'm still pretty sore but feeling so much better than when it was installed. Thankfully a plastic surgeon closed it up so I won't have a big ugly scar. I'll follow up with him next Tuesday.
Unfortunately, the surgery has prevented me from training for the past several days. I took a leisurely stroll around the block tonight. Hopefully within the next week I'll be able to go at a fast pace again.
10 days till I leave for South Carolina! Kaitlin and I are moving into our apartment on June 28th and we're very very excited about it. Kaitlin and Turtle have been anxious to see each other for a very long time now. It should be interesting having the kitty in the car for the trip down to SC!
