Can't recall if it was my first or second colonoscopy, but just as the drug was taking effect one of the nurses said "didn't you represent my husband in our divorce?"

Years later I told this story as they were prepping me for my third. One of the nurses said "that was me!"

My husband died of colon cancer in November, and it was totally preventable. It was in his family, but I couldn’t get him to go get checked out even after he started having symptoms. It’s an awful way to die and I’m glad you got checked out and you are encouraging others to do so.
