Cancergiggles is an idiot's guide to accepting, living with, laughing at and dying from cancer. The very, very last bit I can't be absolutely sure of, but then who the hell can? I could have written some beautifully crafted, grammatically correct essays but I hope you will understand, that when I say "I don't have a lot of time" I mean it far more literally than you do. I just wanted scribble a few thoughts to maybe light a spark in people - and then it became a book about Cancer, Life, Death, Illness and Politics. ISBN 0955198801

Colonoscopy and being nice

Colonoscopy and being nice

Because of the way I look at things, it is pretty rare that I find a link to something which I think may be really useful to the odd (but strangely increasingly large) bunch of folks who like what I say. Just imagine how ecstatic I was when I came across a virtual colonoscopy video. Life doesn’t much more exciting than this. With 4 billion porn sites available, I can let you see the stuff they can’t. I can actually send you to somewhere that explains the whole camera, sound crew, lighting, best grip/boy, inside you thing, better than I ever could.

For anyone who has to have a colonoscopy here is a tip. Ask them to turn the screen round so you can see it, and ask if you can have it on VHS. I watched mine the whole way through and I have to admit that I understood nothing of what I was seeing. The point is this :-

Go to your garage and tell them that your car sounds wrong and there is a strange banging noise coming from the back. You will get new rear brakes, transmission, tyres and wheel bearings and a massive bill. Stay with them and say you want to see what the problem is and they will just remove the cop you ran over yesterday from your rear bumper. Much cheaper! My experience is that the interest and concern which is shown to you, is directly related to the interest and concern you show for somebody’s professionalism. I think that a guy who can clean windows better than me is every bit as valuable as a guy who can do brain surgery better than me. They do different things, but if they do it with humour and the right spirit, there is no difference. So let’s face it, if someone wakes up knowing that their day will be spent, not filming the next Bond blockbuster, but with a camera on a stick, looking in places and at things even you haven’t seen, they must be worthy of your respect.

Watch The Video and then email me to explain why you had a bad day.
