If not for the issues with my mother.

There are issues that need to be resolved, but not known to be at the risk of my mother.

And if this thing goes to hell, it might be six months before it can happen. I hope you’ll be ok. Can’t you hire a car service? There not terribly expensive.

The first one did not go off as planned. I was poorly prepped. I had to reschedule.

I had an extremely understanding driver. He has had his share of colonoscopies.

And he said it will be at least 3 weeks before it can be rescheduled. Needless to say, I am very upset, but understand. I've put in a call for more pain medication.
