As for Ebola, there are already one death and several more emerging cases in America. With no effective treatments and cure available for Ebola, it is not unreasonable to think that it will rage on for a while here and claim more lives. The same goes for D68 virus.
I am probably worrying too much. I will try to calm down a bit. Thanks for your advice and support, guys!
Meatie,
I'm in Texas. Ebola had a chance to gain some ground in Dallas, but it is isolated. Out of curiosity , how old are you? I can understand your worry if you are not yet an adult, and if you are not, please accept my apology for treating you like one. it was certainly not my intention to be condescending. The freedom a port gives a cancer patient, is worth any pain that might be associated with having to endure it. No longer are you locked in a hospital room, but you can go shopping, do gardening, go to work, make it to your own appointments, and be your own person. By being able to do things for yourself, you tend to perceive others as overbearing, although you try your best, not to hurt their feelings.
You could do more for your Mom, asking her what SHE needs done. Even us old people know how to take care of ourselves.
You couldn't know this, butt I was in the hospital for 3 weeks, and needed to recover for 6 more weeks. I just wish one of my sons, would have offered to mow the lawn
