    Mine’s an upside-down T (with a detour around the bellybutton). They went over the same scar once.

    You know what though? It’s kept you WITH US, and therefore, is beautiful. Every slice, scar, etc.

    Tried to comment on your blog, but I couldn’t log in/register.

    Cat- I’m here via Erin’s blog. I posted something similar today on Twitter – today I got the path report from my latest colonoscopy and found they’d removed precancerous polyps from me, too. Regular ‘scopes save lives, plain & simple.

    I may not have to have more of them, because they may be removing my colon due to diverticulitis – they’ve already taken 2 feet of it. But if they don’t, I’ll be sure to get them regularly. We have colon issues in my family, I’d be foolish not to.

    BTW, w/ food allergies? Get yourself an epi-pen. Those tinglings are often precursors to bigger reactions. I started that way with walnuts and bananas – last time I ate walnuts, I ended up in the ER. apparently your body builds up the anti-bodies until they hit a tipping point with allergies.

    I am with everyone who said it has kept you with us. I hope this ends it all for you and you can concentrate on getting healthy again. <3

    We don’t quite match. My gall bladder scars go higher, and I don’t have that adorable Y over my navel. I do, however, have a nice long hip-to-hip bikini-line keloid from previous surgeries reused for my sections. They are battle scars. Wear them with pride.

    And, @Jessica, totally right. When I was really sick and down to 90 pounds from similar symptoms as Erin, I looked HOT. Like Auschwitz sexy hot.

    Screw lipo or dieting, just lose part or all you colon and you can laugh at others. My cholesterol is 130, and I eat sticks of butter.

    lol Jeremy. Yes, I’m tired of the ‘wow you’re skinny! how’d you do it!’ comments. Well, I nearly died. I’m also still, nearly dying. Want to sign up for my weight loss plan? It can be a new reality show hit!
