Okay... I've posted a blurb on "The Colonoscopy" in my journal. I've even used the words rectum AND anus!! I've also included a clip of Lou Rawls administering a colonoscopy. Too funny!!
I hope your weekend is as good as can be!

    Thanks Rob,

    Very funny...I've shared this with my entire family. My colon cancer inspired my brothers and my cousins to all go out and get colonoscopies. I guess after my mom's double colon cancer, my dad's colon tumor and then mine, they finally gathered up the courage to get it done.

    Hopefully this will help to keep them inspired.

    I will be having my first year post cancer scope next month. I think for my procedure I will ask if they can play that song by Sir-Mix-A-Lot, "I Like Big Butts."

    Hi Katie,
    My whole family went for colonoscopies after I was diagnosed. They were all here for the wedding so we compared notes. They were all clear BTW. I guess mine isn't genetically driven.
    Have a good weekend!

    While I was on the gurney for my first post-surgery (removed 12 inches) scopy, I asked my gastro if I got a discounted rate, since I had 12 inches less to scope....

    Funniest part...he didn't get it, but all the nurses busted up laughing...

    Hugs, Kathi
