Swallow and say "Cheese"

Tomorrow I get the pleasure of undergoing another lovely procedure.  I am going to swallow a pill with a camera in it!  Since the colonoscopy and the endoscopy did not provide the information they needed to diagnose my anemia, they are now going to look at my small intestines.  I don't have the details but apparently the camera I swallow will be taking pictures and I will go under an x-ray scan to see what's going on. I want to know if they are going to want the camera back...Lol!  If they do how do they intend to get it?  I know where its eventually going to end up but I don't intend to retrieve it for them.  I would hate to have the job of the one who has to search for it...yuck!  Such a glamorous life I live, my friends.  I will was told I need to plan on spending the day with these lovely technicians.  I will be lovely I am sure in the dull green-grey gown and grey socks they provide. 

I look forward to finding out the results from this procedure tomorrow.  I don't want anything wrong at all but if there is something, I want it found and hopefully treatable.  The colonoscopy produced several polyps that were precancerous which is nothing to worry about because they are now gone.  The endoscopy produced a diagnosis of ??? but I just have to take a med for a month.  I want to say I haven't been worried but I have allowed my imagination to run wild.  The thought of leaving my family is very disturbing to me should they find cancer, yet on some days in life, I often think, Lord come get me this world is wearing me out.  I don't think my thoughts are morbid but rather "hopeful", because "there will be a day with no more pain, no more tears, and no more fears..."

Below is my anthem of late.  I love you my friends, and I would appreciate your prayers.
