Since having the joy of one form of cancer, I now get screened more often than most for ALL kinds of cancer. So this year, as a Valentine's day present to me, I had a colonoscopy.
Romantic? Not really. Life affirming? Yes, actually. I found that no only I DON'T have this particular cancer (thank heavens), but I'm cleared for three more years.
I did get a lovely stuffed animal from the husband which the dog swiped as soon as he could ... how soon we forget who really runs things.
Get checked. It isn't as bad as it once was and you'll be able to spend more time with your loved ones in the years to come.
Really.
