I had my port surgery at MD Anderson yesterday with Dr. Ervin Brown. He is an incredible surgeon that specializes in port surgeries. He has done over 11,000! He is also known for singing oldies to his patients during the entire surgery (I was in there for an hour and 20 minutes). At the end of the surgery, he held my hand and sang "Hooked on a Feeling". The nurses were singing along as well. Amazing right!? For me, this was an experience, not a surgery. Then, last night Dr. Brown sent me an email with "A Song For You" written in the subject. He included his rendition of "What a Wonderful World". This man is doing what he loves and it shows. I am so thankful to get to know these wonderful people that are taking care of me. I would have never had the privilege to experience something like it, but I got to because of you, cancer. You are not as big and tough as you think you are!!! 😤

| Port surgery done. The vein was accessed during surgery so that I didn't have to get poked for chemo. Normally, all you'll see is a bump (the purple friend in the picture above) under my skin. |
