To the port!! Tomorrow is Brinley's surgery to remove her port. I thought she would be sad, like she was when we pulled her broviac line and she cried like it was a part of her we were taking away. Nope, she is all smiles, because "then I can't get accessed anymore!" Tomorrow is also her first off-treatment check. So she will get a blood test to see her counts and look for cancer cells. She should also get an echocardiogram to make sure she does not have any heart damage from the chemo.

To be honest, today has been a worrisome day for me. There is always a worry when there is a surgery involved, but then I also worry about the cancer. It's not very logical, Brinley is feeling great still. I'm sure everything will go fine, I mean they have been checking for cancer cells for two years now, and haven't seen any yet!!

If you could just give Brin a shout out in your prayers tonight, it would be much appreciated!! Will update tomorrow.
