Time to get God on the red phone please! Jo Jo is one step closer to having slayed this beast! Tomorrow August 7 the same surgeon who placed her port on March 7, 2013 will finally get to remove it! It's safe to say I AM SCARED! Anytime there is anesthesia there is a greater risk of not waking from the medical induced slumber necessary not to mention the port has been connected to a major artery starting in Jo Jo's neck that leads straight to her heart where a hunk of metal has been hanging out for two plus years with plenty of time for tissue to have formed all around some pretty important areas of my baby girl who just thinks it's cool that her and Iron Man have a connection! I'm concerned about the gaping hole that will be left in it's place & the monthly arm pokes to follow! God blessed Jacey Jo big time! Some kiddos have 2 & 3 ports or their bodies reject a port completely causing them to become a pin cushion so no complaints or crying around now! Just prayers please? Her port has served it's purpose and eased a lot of suffering for Jo along the way!
