…….or is that only El Papa?
Some may recall, that, a couple of weeks back, I had to pop along to see Dr Sandroussi, aka God; after he’s coerced me into having first an endoscopy/colonoscopy, followed up by some other procedure where they tried to convert me to a ‘barrage balloon’ by pumping me full of gas.
Those some that recalled the above, might also recall that I was told that I had developed bowel cancer, and that God, in his wisdom, was sending me off to see a friend and colleague and specialist in colorectal surgery who was/is smarter than he.
First, I had a ‘Pet Scan’ on the 10th, then off to meet Dr Peter J Lee, God’s mate who according to God is smarter, on Wednesday 23rd. 
The War Office thought it best to come with me; (I believe she thinks she can stop me wriggling out) and so we attended Dr Lee’s rooms right on time, and what a joy it was! I don’t know how, or where, the RPA manages to find such mighty people; but find them they do.
Dr Lee, had both our confidence, and respect within a couple of minutes of meeting. Within a few minutes the laughter, emanating from behind his closed doors, must have had those waiting, wondering what was going on in these rooms/ surgery, devoted to those with cancer. 🙄
To cut to the chase; Dr Lee told me that he doesn’t think I have cancer, which seemed to please the W.O. for some reason, and that he planned to do some tests on me on the 18th September which will confirm that I’m cancer free; for the present.
Don’t worry; it’s out to get me in the end! 👿
Now the thing is God told me that I had cancer, and his mate tells me that he doesn’t think I have; so I now have a dilemma of gigantic proportions. ❓
Is God infallible or is Dr. Lee my own personal El Papa? 😈

Oh that’s so cruel to be told by one that’s it’s cancer and by the other that it isn’t. I mean, it’s great news if Dr. Lee is right, so that’s where my money goes. Crossing my fingers for a good outcome on the additional tests.

I thought it rather hilarious; 😀 The stuff I had to drink and the pumping me full of gas still left a clouded load of plumbing, that’s why the Pet Scan and a colorectal specialist has taken over. I have every confidence in these blokes as you know 😀
Thanks for the cross fingers and no prayers.:evil: 😉 🐻

Trust you to use the differences of opinion of eminent medicos to cast doubt on the veracity of Western theological thinking.
I hope your newest deity is right.

I had (When I worked in the Ballarat Home Brew shop) two v old bottles with the label on one of Johnson’s Irish Whiskey and the other was Johnson’s Irish Whisky. The name Johnson’s may be incorrect but the two spellings were as I say. However, be that as it may, anyone who drinks Bourbon has no right to be so bloody pedantic. If you want to drink American Whiskey at least you could drink Tennessee sour mash.

The food won’t go to waste; you leave the food on the altars for the gods to consume and after about six months, it’s all gone save a few bones.
I’m not a Vegan. Vega is a star and doesn’t have an environment that’s friendly to human life.

let’s hope Dr Lee is right, that’s where I’m placing my money. I feel a visit to the Old Vic, when the weather gets a little warmer, would be good therapy for us both.

They are in agreement, God had some doubts that’s why he sent me to see his mate Dr Lee, who specializes in the lower intestines, whereas he specializes in the upper. I’m in excellent hands and have full confidence in them all! 😀

A good generalist is wise enough to see, but knows he doesn’t know, so he sends you to someone more skilled because he sees it every day. Teamwork! Go team!
Your experience is fairly common. Better to be safe than sorry and cautious. Cheers to both of your docs ( and to you for encouraging news)

Blessings and Three Cheers to Dr Lee!
It must be due to the W.O. tender care, the sacrificial offerings to the gods, the libations spilled at the Old Vic, and the blessings from above, and the infamous St Brendan’s Prayers for the Sick List, which as I understand it, is now being investigated by ICAC.
Best news ever.
