Our family comedian has been working overtime lately. Bad thing is the more Jr thinks he is funny, the more he tries to be. Being in the medical field along with SuperMom, we try to explain medical things as they are. So recently I was scheduled to have a colonoscopy. Since you are not able to eat the day before, of course the topic came up. "Dad, why aren't you eating?". "Because I have to have this procedure tomorrow and my stomach needs to be empty", etc was my reply. Of course this leads to more questions and more questions. Answers range from "looking at the inside of your stomach region with a camera" to "just to make sure everything is ok". The camera part must have stuck out. Yesterday at dinner, which by the way was a month since the procedure, Jr says "Dad do you have the pictures from the camera they put up your butt?". I simply replied No!, while he laughed as hard as he could. Never did I think my life would become what it has. Oh well, at least he keeps me awake.
