Hi everyone
I applied for the colondar and got accepted. Anyone else here doing this??? We shoot in June. This is so exciting. 24 folks selected from all walks of life so I will get to know them well over that weekend. Molly from the Colon Club seems so ultra cool. Any of you know her?

    Hi Claudia.....congratulations! After seeing Sponger have his body up on stage so to speak I thought that sooner or later someone from this board would enter.
    I would have done so myself but it is a bit far to go for a photo shoot. And in any case my body has already been under some scrutiny with members of this site. Some have already seen it on priv. emails ......not a pretty site....lol!
    Go for it.....cheers, Ross n Jen

    congratulations claudia! My daughter, jillian, is 23 and was dx last april with stage 3 rectal. i have been in touch with molly and she was kind enough to have her mother email me. they both are wonderful people. i begged my daughter to try out for the colondar but she has no interest yet. i puchased 2. 1 hangs in my office and i gave 1 to our gastroenterologist for his office. i look forward to seeing you in the 2007 edition! By the way, my daughter received a gift of a puppy right after her diagnosis. he has helped her (and all of us) make it through infections, chemo, surgery, radiation and more chemo. he goes to training class now so that hopefully he will become a therapy dog one day :) lots of good luck and good health to you....susan

    Claudia, what a great honor! "Starting at the bottom" so to speak. Where is this colondar, how do I buy one? I'm just a newbie, so don't know.

    Congratulations, Claudia!! That is fantastic news. Well done. You make us proud.

    Actually, I applied -- but didn't get selected. That is fine by me -- I just wanted to show my support to this wondeful cause. And now "fitnessbuff31", too -- that is great! Good on you both!

    Hey fitness buff
    Your title makes me feel very un-buff! But I am trying to walk more and get back in shape for this...and life! I bet you are a sexy thing then!
    I am 35F and live in Washington DC (College Park, MD). How exciting! We will meet! I would love to email some and get to know eachother before the shoot!!!

    Hi fellow Massachusettsians (babs211 + moesimo)
    It's a small world. I work for/go to BU and I heard my colondarmate for Feb. is from BC, is that either of you?
