My dad gets a colonoscopy

]]> In what I hope doesn’t become another entry for the “What Now?” files, my dad informed me that he has to have a colonoscopy.

Now, while it’s good practice for people of a certain age to get them at prescribed intervals, this came up rather suddenly.

It’s routine-ish, but still, so was my mother’s carotid surgery which launched a 3 year nightmare of complications and lung cancer.

And, it’s scheduled for when I’m out of town and my husband is alone with the kids. While that’s going to be some logistics juggling for him (my husband), I am secretly glad I don’t have to go to that particular hospital right now.

Forgive me if I seem a little skittish, I’ll get over it.
