It's Friday! Time to get disgusting

Does this blog have a severe shortage of scatalogical posts? Ya think?

Warning: Do not read if you are eating breakfast, lunch, supper or bedtime snack, depending on where you are on the planet!

JAW told me about this yesterday, and last night it was on the National news. I'm still grossing out.

"A controversial new treatment, which involves the transplantation of human waste, can treat cases of C. difficile infection. But only a handful of physicians in Canada undertake the messy procedure.

Studies that have been published show that more than 90 per cent of patients are cured through fecal transplants — most of them after just one treatment.

The procedure involves getting a close relative of the patient, such as a sibling, to donate several days-worth of stool. Louie tests the stool for diseases such as hepatitis and HIV and then mixes it with saline to create liquid feces. He then administers the stool to the patient through an enema." (CBC)

In the words of MAD Magazine: BLECH!!!!!

I love my sister but....BLECH!!!

I just hope you're sister doesn't say BLECCH should you ever happen to catch it.

After all, a well-knit family is a will-sh*t family...that's my new motto.
