Pascale's Port got installed April 27th. (central venous catheter)
A Port in oncological terms it is a permenant catheter. A need stuck into the arm and ment to stay there for the next 4 months.
There's a special solution needed to keep it clean.
She's blue about it.
Think how happy would you be about this. You've lost your hair, your body is subject to the random effects of strong medecine, now you get an upper arm semi-permenant mainline into the basilic vien.
