Boating and Colonoscopies

My doctor and (even my neurologist) always asks everybody over 50 if
they have had a colonoscopy. Colon or intestinal cancer is one of the
easiest deadly conditions to detect and correct at an early stage if
one gets scoped out, and one of the deadly conditions from which one
can easily die if not discovered.

Got my first one at about 48. Had a apparent bleeding internal
hemroid, scared the beejeezus out of me. The procedure wasn't that
bad. Damn good 20 hour or so high afterwards, just don't trust a
fart.

My neighbor, who's in the health care industry, is struggling with
colon cancer. Ignored the signs, I guess do to vanity. Looks like
he'll be a survivor, was it wasn't a pretty battle. No bag, no
diaper.

I guess I'm a little unusual as far as guys go. I get a decent check
up twice a year due to medications I'm on. So far, so good.
