I felt a bit melodramatic after posting that last post, as it actually is a fairly routine procedure, and everything went just fine. Although I have to say, it didn't hurt that I took a few valium.
I did, on the suggestion of one of my friends, ask if I could take it home. She said no, they have to send it back somewhere since it's a medical device. I told her, I wanted to used it as a paperweight. To which she said, it's not really heavy enough for that. I told her I don't really use that much paper, working at an internet company. She said, it would probably be better to make a bracelet out of it. What a great suggestion! Anyway, I didn't get it - but I did get a picture of it! This is the actual port that was in my body, giving me all that chemo and herceptin treatments. Whew. So, I am now port-less. Yay!

This would make an interesting bracelet. ;)
