Do the right thing!

OK, totally unrelated to woodturning, but this is important...

I turned 54 last October, and after a minor complication involving a gall bladder removal, I had a procedure where they ran a scope down my throat with a camera. I'll spare the details, but it was nothing all that bad. It made me think about something I've been trying to not think about. Then, Dan Fogelberg died at the age of 59 from prostate or colon cancer (I can't recall which) that was advanced when they found it. It was time for me to do the right thing for my family and get a colonoscopy!

Now, I won't lie to you, the preparation was not much fun, but the procedure was nothing, and mine came out perfect. The Doctor even told my wife it was "beautiful"! Don't know about that, but for such a simple test that was covered by insurance, it was a complete no-brainer. I don't have to do it again for 10 years. If every test was this easy, this conclusive, we'd all be a lot better off.

For those that love you, be a real man and get this "behind" you (HaHa) and look forward to the things you love to do! Here's to your good health!!!
