I went back and forth whether to post about this because it's not exactly a fun topic nor one people want to hear about. So again in addition to the content warning, this is going to be talking about unpleasant but vitally necessary butt stuff. But I now have three friends who have or have had colon cancer. One is dead before she turned the age of 40. If talking about this experience makes people a little more likely to get their colonoscopies, then let's talk about drinking a gallon of fluid with a month's worth of laxatives in it in 12 hours. Because it's necessary but still weird and kind of darkly funny.

    So I haven't gotten the tube up my butt yet, but everyone tells me that's the easy part. You're under mild sedation and don't feel anything and it doesn't hurt afterwards. It's the crazy-ass prep you have to do for it ahead of time.
