Colonic polyps
« on: June 25, 2021, 01:31:57 PM »
Investigations have got to the bottom [snigger] of Nod's problem. He is having nightmares about having sharp things pushed up his arse to cut the little critters off.  eveilgrin:

I am vacillating between reassurance and winding up  rubschin:

It's a tough call this.

Have you told him they've probably already tattooed him in some X marks the spot system?
Well, whatever, nevermind

I drop round for a coffee

Me: Good news about the polyps
Nod: Yes! Here is the letter

I read the relevant section

"Initial investigation reveals a lesion which requires further urgent investigation, and a couple of polyps. Call (phone number) asap to arrange for a biopsy."

Me: Um, this is not about polyps. They need you in asap for what looks like a biopsy of this lesion.

Nod: Lesion? What is a lesion. I must have overlooked that bit.   noooo:
Me: It could be cancer. You have to call them in the morning!!

As I leave, Nod says. "I think I might make a will this afternoon."

I guess we see what we want to see.  Ironically, this letter comes in the same week as Nod inherited £250K from his mum's estate....

Maybe he needs some help with that will... rubschin:

Nod calls to say that biopsy results are "not good".  This sort of news is getting all too familiar in the VP and around my circle  noooo:
