OMG...I am such a pain in my own ass...so I can imagine what you guys must be thinking...but I have to tell you this...

Five years before his "right hemi-colectomy" (medical term for what hubby had done to him) he had a brief bout with rectal bleeding. We had to go to a Gastroentorologist <sp?> and hubby had a colonoscopy. We were thinking, at the time of his hemi-colectomy, that this might have been a warning sign (previous bleeding problem)...but who can predict the future?

Anyway...while being evaluated by the gastro guy (lol!), he told us something that shocked us and made me go hmmmmmmm! There are only three types of bowel movements. A "banana" type...once, or at the most, twice a day (normal as all get out), diarrhea (self explainitory), or constipation (any stool that isn't of the aforementioned movements).

Can you believe I HAD to mention that? Yep! Me neither!

The reason I did mention it? Belial has found a difference in his habits and the body can't tell us but to SHOW us!

Nuff said!
