So, the title is only funny if you were a fan of SNL during the time of Mike Meyers. I thought of it today when Kathie was telling the awkward story of how a family friend was looking up her bum this morning - no worries, it was just our family doctor (who is my friend from HS's dad). Needless to say, she isn't thrilled this is being shared to all of you either;)
Anyway, rather than immediately seeing a gastroenterologist, who would have made her clean out once more - something no one was thinking was the best idea since that's all she's been doing on her own - she saw the fam doctor to see if he thought she needed to see someone else. As it goes about 50% of the time, Dr. DuCharme (Kathie, for those of you that have missed that family joke over the last billion years) had accurately predicted that it was basically an interior hemorrhoid (not quite, but basically) that was pretty dang tired of all the stuff that has been pushing it around over the last few weeks. So, that's the good news - nothing too serious, but she needs to resolidify (it's been getting better, but not perfect quite yet), to give her bum a little break.
She also had another round of blood tests while she was in - again, looked decent - not the best, but not bad. With positive results and some peace of mind about the bleeding issue, Bob and Kathie are in Tennessee for a couple of days and then off to North Carolina with the boat in tow. We're aiming for it to be a less "exciting" trip than last time she was in NC.

I am so sorry that the cancer came your way and that all of these unpleasant activities have accompanied it. I am, however, impressed with your spirit.
Impressive also has been your family and friends who have done a wonderful job supporting you. Thank you, family, for continuing the blog even if my time predates Mike Myers. :)
