They found precancerous polyps and I wrote a humorous piece about it but ended with a similar message to Glenn’s – get checked out. BTW, we used to have a urologist in my area whose first name was Dick and his last name was Long. Is that the best name ever for a urologist?

Love this! We have one in our town called Hardaway, but Dick is so much funnier! It is scary to actually go looking for trouble but it is so important to catch something early to improve outcomes. Glad everything turned out well for you, too

Only a few exaggerations included. 😉
