Which will put my wife in a very comfy situation if I pass. I often bother her that she should just get rid of me and collect. However...

    Flushing a Port

    When I tried to flush it after the IV's it wouldnot flush at all so I took it off. I spoke with my doctor and he told me to try it with the 3/4 inch needle again and not to call the nurse. I guess he thinks I am more brave that what I really am. So I will enjoy a nice bath and hope my wife...
