    It doesn't seem like these types of cancers were as wide spread for the older generations, so maybe lifestyle influences are at play.. my dad would have turned 80 this year and he never had a care..ended up with Parkinson's for 10 years which is a whole other beast..it wasn't hereditary. I'd pass on the colonoscopy and just number 2 in the box though..

    No and postage is pre-paid. Took mine to a UPS store; just handed it to the clerk there and that was all there was to it.

    UPS worker at the DC,, "hmm, do you smell something? Oh, one of those poop boxes",,, Do they do something about the smell with those boxes? I eat a lot of sugar so my crap really stinks. Some say THAT'S a sign of a problem, extra stinky craps. My views are slighted being 70, I mean, what, I should go through that to live another 5 years, or live 5 years more without doing anything? Now someone in their 50s should probably adhere to your advice, but at 70 and beyond, we're just padding these healthcare peoples pockets and they know it.

    if your 70 and still in good health, it’s still not a surgery I would want go thru, if someone got colon cancer. You might make it into your 90’s

    You would not want to be Fork lift driver to squish or break that box open. Ha ha. It has hard plastic container inside the box and some liquid you put in the container also before shipping it

    They say prostate cancer won’t kill most guys but it a simple check to see if a guy has it. Cancer can be bad stuff. It can spread out from original area. That’s the problem from my understanding. Something that could have been fix pretty easy, turns into something they can’t stop. Maybe they will have a cure for cancer in 15 years or be able to control it like HIV with pills.
