Port Problems part II

The port that Dr. Montano put in last Tuesday continued to give the staff at the CTC trouble during her first chemo treatment last Wednesday, they were unable to give her the chemo drug in her port as it is very toxic and they could not guarantee that it wouln't leak into other areas of her body, causing complications.  They also weren't able to draw blood from it like they should have been able to.  The initial word from the doctor was that the port may have had a kink in it and would have to be replaced if it was not operational by this next Wednesday.  Please pray that her port is operational by Wednesday so she won't have to go through surgery again.
