Suzie's Schtuff

Nobody wants one.  Everyone 50 and over is supposed to get it up the rear eventually, lol!  I didn't want to either but doctors begin nagging you the second you approach the "decade of maintenance" as my doctor puts it.  Do you look at that as falling apart or time to take care of yourself?  Or a little of both? 

Anyway, I resolved to do it this year and wanted it out of the way so I could enjoy my summer..  Good thing, too, cuz they found something.



My doctor said it was a big one!  So, when I googled  "distal sigmoid colon" the hits I got were about lesions and cancer.
Did finding that now just prolong my life for the sake of an uncomfortable, pukey day (magnesium citrate upset my tummy--nobody else I know had that happen) and a procedure that had me in at 11:00 a.m. and home by 2:00? 

I am glad I did it and hope you will too when the time comes.  And to my sister, who "stubbornly" refuses to get one, I'll take you.  It's important.
