About me: A Chicago writer and comedian, Ive worked on TV, radio, ad campaigns, and had a short story published. In Jan. 09 surgeons performed an emergency quadruple bypass, broke me open like a pinata, saving my life. The physical recovery part went well. Im still working on the mental part. After several years of therapy, my psychologist set me off on my own. Open Heart Blog is my continued recovery, you might say, the day-to-day part Im doing all by myself that I update, pretty much, every Friday.

My Date with a Doctor

I’m getting a colonoscopy this Monday. It’ll be my second. Colonoscopies are a rite of “passage” (pun somewhat intended) when you turn that “certain age,” the age when doctors start looking around in places you thought, for sure, no one would ...
