So TRUE....

Don't think of organ donation as giving up part of yourself to keep a total stranger alive. It's really a total stranger giving up almost all of themselves to keep part of you alive. ~Author Unknown

Devin was scheduled to have his routine 4 year scope today.... We did a complete bowel prep yesterday between 11 and 1... 1 bottle of Mag Citrate, 4 caps of MiraLax, 2 Dulcolax... and NOTHING!!! No belly pain.. No rumbling.. Nothing!!! So I topped it off with an adult enema at 6 last night... NOTHING!!!!  This morning we convinced him to sit n try... Formed stool REALLY!!! Impossible.  We headed down to DC thinking it could be a very eventful trip when all these things finally kicked in... NOTHING!!!  Upon arrival he was very try so they put in an IV and loaded him with fluids and gave him a Dulcolax suppository and NOTHING!!!! They decided to proceed ahead with the colonoscopy because at this point it was torture for him... 1 hour later they came out to tell us.. He'd need to be admitted and we'd need to start the process ALL over again and do another colonoscopy in the morning... they were unable to visualize areas and advance in..  So here we are in the hospital in DC!! Praying for more success tomorrow... This is TORTURE for him...
