I'm on a clear liquid diet today as my colonoscopy is scheduled for tomorrow morning. I've bought magazines to read as I'll probably spend the majority of the night in the bathroom.

I want to encourage all of you to have this done. It's a number one killer. I had polyps the last time that thankfully, were benign but I now have to be careful and have the routine every three years. The prep is worse than the procedure but even then, it isn't bad. If nothing else, you get cleaned out really well.

There are no real symptoms to let you know you have colon cancer until it's very serious and it's something that can be stopped and handled. If you wait too long, it's much more serious and deadly so please, take the time to schedule your colonoscopy this year. It could save your life.
