Thanks Charles,<br>
Like I asked Stefan with his variation, could it also be written the
following way?<br>

<div>Doesn't yours show the palm facing down, not up? The hand is
halfway which shows back of hand up. I realize the port is just below
the shoulder, but I'm not sure how else to show the palm facing
correctly, and having the touch for the pinkie, not the index finger.
How's this?</div>

at your spelling – the palm is down not up – so this way it is
difficult for the pinky to touch the breast. <o:p></o:p></span></font></div>

<div class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman" color="black"
size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">A member of my late-deafened
support group was trying to describe a sign he had ju! st learned for
"chemo" (chemotherapy). He described it this way:<br>
<br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></span></font></div>
<pre><font face="Courier New" color="black" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt;">"Open four hand, palm up, tap pinky to the chest where a port<o:p></o:p></span></font></pre>
<pre><font face="Courier New" color="black" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt;">would be - just below the shoulder joint, in the meat of the<o:p></o:p></span></font></pre>
<pre><font face="Courier New" color="black" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt;">pectoral muscle"<o:p></o:p></span></font></pre>
<pre><font face="Courier New" color="black" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></pre>
<div class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman" color="black"
size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">That's a little ambiguous to
me as I don't know which hand or shoulder, if the fingers are splayed
or if the little finger touches once or twice. If I take it to be the
right hand's ! little finger touching the chest just below the right
shoulder, palm up, thumb tucked, fingers splayed, touching just once,
would this be correct?<br>
