Sometimes the journey needs to include things like a colonoscopy. I needed to be at the hospital by 7:00 am this morning and nicely, my brother took me as Kathy didn’t want to drive in this weather we are having. I’m home, have the snow shoveled and needed to get my blog completed even though it is late. 

For reasons that may be understandable, I’m not completely at ease when I have one of these. 20 years ago when I had my first one my heart rate was 146 and the nurse thought I wouldn’t be able to complete it. The doc understood and he said to just knock me out, which they did. Today my heart rate was ONLY 127. The nurse thought I must be very uptight and asked if there were a reason? I told her I felt just fine (which I did) but that I had experience several years of sexual abuse from a brother while growing up and this is just residual from that time in my life. She raised her eyebrows and that’s all that was said. Seconds later I was out like a light. 

After a day of no eating and only drinking that “good stuff”, it was nice to come home and have a great breakfast! I’m sure colonoscopies are a result of sin. God’s original design I’m sure would never require something like this! Yet, GOD is GOOD!
