    Pearls Before Swine: Guard Duck and Health Insurance
    https://www.gocomics.com/pearlsbeforeswine/2022/04/22

    I might need the guard duck since my wife's colonoscopy yesterday turned
    from an inspection to a full blown procedure with a metal clip holding
    her large intestine together.

    Damn! So sorry to hear that. But at least it sounds as if they headed of
    worse problems.

    Oh, dear. Tell her to get well quick. And tell the guard duck
    not to strike in advance of orders.

    Thanks to all. She is well now, or when her intestinal wall heals from
    the golf ball sized polyp. Ten polyps in all, the surgeon was not
    happy. He told her she will be back in three years, not seven years
    like this time.

    Her Cherokee grandfather died of a double intestinal blockage in 1983 at
    the age of 83. Just six months before, he had made me arm wrestle him
    and he won. I was 22, 220 lbs, and could bench press 330 lbs, he was
    82, my 6'1" height, and lanky.

    I guess this isn't dedicated to the late Gilbert Gottfried, who voiced the AFLAC duck.

    Ouch! I wouldn't be either.

    He told her she will be back in three years, not seven years

    And you get to bring her in. May all her tests be negative.

    Well, no wonder his granddaughter is so resilient.
