That was a great story. I love all the out of the box ways that colon cancer awareness gets out there. Thanks for sharing.

Molly,

You have no idea how much this article meant to me. You see, I need some laughter in my life today. We had to put our 18 year old furbaby (Precious was a spaniel mix) to sleep yesterday and my world has crashed around me.

But, reading this put a smile on my face and I actually heard a chuckle come out of my mouth! This was just a hoot and you're right WAY too funny!

Thanks Molly, for being an angel to me today. I needed it more than you can know.

Thanks Molly! Very Funny!
I particularly like his description of the taste of moviprep.
Barry's article combined with the YouTube vid you sent of one of the Wayan Brothers getting a colonoscopy is a great one-two punch to break the ice and loosen it up a bit (to say the least!) when promoting CC awareness.

Oh, rats! Does anyone have this article downloaded?!

I thought I had saved the article referenced here ("A Journey into my Colon - and Yours", by Dave Barry), but I only saved the link and it has expired. Did anyone download the story, by chance? I think it would be a humorous way to break the ice with DH's siblings, who are resistant to the idea of getting colonoscopies.
