ey ey ey! the waiting game sucks

I have never considered myself an anxious person. I have never thought I could feel this way. Waiting for PET scan results have reeked havoc on my psyche.....I feel like I have a knot in my chest that can only be untied by two words, "It's working!" I meet with theeee doctor tomorrow at 1:30pm. I actually called them today thinking they could squeeze me in just so they could elevate MY anxiety........that's pretty funny since they rarely run on time for a normally scheduled appointment. Unfortunately it was not possible(imagine that). Don't worry....you will be the first to know!

  4. I will be thinking of you all day. Tell the doctor it better be good news or he will witness the mob effect first hand as all of your supporters will break down the clinic door and... well you get the picture.

    here is a funny in the meantime...

    Colonoscopy Song

    The lyrics of "The Colonoscopy Song":

    When I had my colonoscopy, I had a question on my mind
    Do we all look the same when the doctor sees us from behind?
    Then I had the answer, I felt like such a fool
    Cause the doctor smiled and said to me, "Your colon's really cool."

    My colon's really cool, what a nice surprise
    He sees a lot of colons, but my colon took the prize

    Then he added something that was even more divine
    "We found a polyp hiding, Peter, but we caught it just in time
    We found a poly hiding, don't mean to sound so crass
    But the polyp was discovered by a camera up"

    My mother and my father spoke to me that very day
    They said, "My son, it seems you've won the Polyp prize, hooray, hooray, hooray!" 1:20

    So…. listen to me closely for this not a lie
    Colon Cancer can be beaten, if you are not camera shy
    Call you doctor swiftly, no ifs or and or butts (sic)
    Schedule your colonoscopy , I know you've got the guts. 1:47

    My….. colon's really cool, what a nice surprise
    My colon really groovy


    There will also be a live colonoscopy aired tomorrow morning on the CBS early show to "celebrate" Colorectal Cancer Month
