This seems so trivial compared to other things that are happening, but my husband went in for a colonoscopy this morning. He's been having some bleeding so they wanted a picture of his insides. They removed a few polyps and sent them for biopsy, we should have the results in about a week. They also found an ulcer and took and sample. Hubby is full of Demerol (often given to women during delivery, perhaps some of you have had it) so he's happy and spacey right now. It seems to be wearing off a little and I expect him to sleep the rest of the day. I'm glad he's home and relieved it looks like another bout with a childhood problem, not something more serious.
(Oh, and just in case, because one of my aunts got confused: a colonoscopy is when they send a little fiber optic camera, ie. scope, into the colon to get a look; that operation where they remove some or all of the colon and you have a bag attached, is a colostomy. This was the first one.)
