    Just wanted to pass on Marie's daughter's post from Facebook; Megan wrote: "Thank you all of you in her breast cancer network who helped her by letting her talk about what she was going through, she didn't always want to talk to me and the boys and my dad because she didnt want to burden us with her struggles, and it was hard watching her going through it all and knowing she didn't want to talk about it with us, but it was a relief knowing she had people to talk to about it."

    And now back to the party!!!

    Folks, How do you get them to knock you out for the alien butt probe? It is clearly in my future, and I have been dreading it after people telling me that they went through it wide awake. Also, and sorry to be indelicate here (she says after using the phrase "alien butt probe"), but please, please tell me the prep does not involve an enema. How does anyone face that?

    Momine, you will have "twilight" anaesthetic. I've gone to sleep each time. Maybe if you lied about your weight you'd stay awake...hehehehehe. Also, if you wake up, you just tell them and they an easily put you back under. It is very, very light....

    There is NO enema for the prep, but that might be easiery. You have to drink potions or take pills. I've had both ways. Pills didn't clear me out well enough, doc commented on it, hey! not MY fault!!! Potions kinda rip your guts out and you may spend the night on the bathmat. Don't wear underwear you like while doing the prep.

    The only good thing is that when it's over you will have NO pain or indication that anyone was in "there". Promise!! You'll be starving too, a double bacon cheese burger is a common cure after a colonoscopy.

    Barbe, ROFL! You really are just awful. Thing is here they do not knock you out necessarily. It sounds like it is routine in the States.

    In the States they give you the twighlight sleep as well.  When DH had his he said he went to sleep and then woke up in the recovery area.  The prep stuff I picked up is a little different than what DH had.  I think they keep trying to improve it.  Seems I don't have to drink as much of the mixture but I do have to follow it with water.  Thanks OK I like water.

    Momine, then you have the same avatar as someone from Toronto. Is your avatar generic or did you draw it?

    Thanks Sue, I love when we do that :)

    Momine - you just tell them that you've been through quite enough thank you, and that if they want you to have the procedure, you want to be asleep. I can't imagine they'd turn you down if you demand it!!
