Special needs!!  Big Grin  Do you have a priority access card so you can got to the front of the line?  Reminds me of a column on coffee by Dave Barry where he expressed frustration at having to be back in the line while dilettantes were ordering their exotic coffee recipes while he, with an actual medical need for coffee, straight up and black, had to wait.

Found it!

Mark, those two Dave Barry articles were priceless, especially the one about getting a colonoscopy.  I am a Dave Barry fan and he really hit the bullseye with that one.  His seriousness,  humor, and descriptions were all spot on.

Having never feared getting a colonoscopy (at my age, I have had four) I get to appreciate the desserts shown here a bit more worry free.  While I am trying to cut down on sweets, I can always, as ShadowsDad states, "eat it with my eyes." Big Grin

You said it Freddy  I have a family history and have had more colonoscopies than I can remember. Dave Barry is great. There’s a bit on colonoscopies on YouTube by Billy Connolly that’s hilarious and more “colourful “. And as Dave Barry said, if you’re 50 or over and haven’t had one yet, get on it.

Those are priceless! And I want that colonoscopy one to hand out to patients, especially those picking up MoviPrep!!
The thing about MoviPrep is that when you mix it up you think, I got this. How hard can this be? Well, when you’re choking down what feels like your millionth glass of that vile liquid you learn how hard it can be. Then you get to do it again!!
