Day at the Hospital

This morning I had to wake up very early for a minor surgery. I actually feel back to my normal self although very sore from the surgery. Coming up on my 2 year anniversary from being cancer free. It was about time to take out my mediport. I was looking forward to it but was a bit nervous this morning. I had to get the family up really early @ 5am and we arrived at the hospital by 6:15am. I was omitted into the hospital which brought back a ton of old memories of the last time. The surgeon started the operation sooner than I expected. I received a local and was awake for the whole procedure. I didn't like that part a bit at all. They numbed me up which was probably the worst part of it all and than removed my port. They proceeded to show me what it looked like. I was surprised at how big the port was. The doctor stitched me back up and I was on my way home. The port removal was a really weird feeling. I'm now on the recovery train and look forward to putting this chapter behind me.
