Update: Tuesday 1pm

He is happy and joyful. The port will take about 45 minutes to install in his chest. Then an hour of recovery.  Then chemo will be administered in his room a coupla hours after that.

The port is about the size of a quarter. It'll look like a little doorbell under his skin.

The chemo will take about an hour to administer, and, thankfully, we can do it right in his room rather than the oncology clininc. We'll get to know that place very well over the next 18 weeks.

Over and out for now....
