@wendy517 and @nohrt4me, I like that too, the BMB Club. I’m a frequent flyer… When I reached my 12th (13 total) I joked with the NP about, ‘Is this like a Baker’s dozen? Do I get a punch card or a freebie?’ Without skipping a beat she said, “When you reach a dozen we toss in a free colonoscopy!” Haha that shut me up!

LOVE her sense of humor! I was getting a massage months after my BMB and told the therapist there's a sore bump on my hip and is that normal and can she please try and work it out (thinking maybe scar tissue from sciatica?) She then asks, were you cut here? Duh, it was a hematoma from the BMB, I'm fair with blue eyes blonde hair so I'm told it's why I bruise very easily. I got a chuckle, how quickly I forgot about it!

Be well my friend, I'm excited for the eclipse tomorrow!! Being in NJ & PA (my father passed recently so I've been staying with my Mom in PA) we'll get a great view. Weather looks to be cooperating! 🤞🙏❤️
