Scared of the Port!


There have been two instances in my life where I have been scared out of my pants.

1. At the beach, surrounded by birds. (Please do not look into this further - I do have a bird phobia. If I know you in real life, please refrain from testing this - it is true, please trust me and don't take me to the park, beach, downtown, etc. to prove this fact! Its not fun and I -will- freak out!)
2. When I watched Dawn of the Dead

Now, why am I sharing my embarrassing secrets with you all? Because I am getting my chemo port installed tomorrow and the thought is making me nervous, borderline scared! I saw the diagrams - they don't look easy to install! I dont exactly know how theyre going to find that vein and I hate the thought of me being awake... watching them while they poke through my skin! Ugh!

I googled how they look on actual people and they are too graphic to explain. I feel like throwing up on myself. :(

Hopefully they come in different colors. Will update yall tomorrow.
