About an hour after returning from Germany, MGH called and asked me to come in for a follow-up colonoscopy 2 days later as they had a cancelation as my previous one last summer was compromised by the prep not doing a good purge.

Admit Type: Outpatient

Room: MGH BLAKE 4 PROC RM 05

Attending MD: Norman S. Nishioka , MD,


The surgeon is the director of the unit.

Bottom line he saw nothing that concerned him but he wants to follow up in a year pending the final report.

Woody Allen says that death is peaceful like when they put you out during a colonoscopy. And Life is like the prep day.
Well, that's not a fun welcome back! I hope everything goes well.

Had a colonoscopy 2 years ago. I still don't know why I just didn't bring my pillow and blanket into the bathroom the night before.

100 pound Bernese Mountain Dog jumps on the bed a few nights ago....lands right on the side of my knee

This knee replacement can't come fast enough

Working and just walking is a struggle
You will probably have to tell your pup to stay off you after surgery.

Ouch....I love mountain dogs, they are oblivious to their size though. I have never owned one but every one of them I have met has sat on my feet.

We’re going to Quebec City in the beginning of December. Anyone who lives there or has visited there have any recommendations or tips? Thanks!

Lots of people. Are you getting cold feet?

I went many years ago. It is a beautiful city!

There is a beautiful waterfall close. Only 12 kilometers (7.5mi) from Quebec City, the largest falls in the region are 84 meters (275ft) high with two drops. The park is quite developed with a cable car, zip-line, stairs and road access to the top and bottom. The falls are also visible from the road, but the park is worth visiting. In winter, huge amounts of ice and snow accumulate.

Who becomes a dad at 47

I wouldn’t overthink it. You are better prepared now most likely than when you were younger. I know I was.
My first was when I was 36. My twins when I was 41.
I had already done all the crazy stuff I would do. I had matured enough to know I dont come first. I had forgotten what it was like to see the world through a childs eyes.

You will make a great dad.

This made me cry and you’re a wonderful human being for stringing those words together for my benefit
