As I said in previous blogs I had external radiation and internal radiation. What I didn’t tell you was how much joking around I did about this. I used to joke about my eyes glowing in the dark. Trust me; I did check it out, no glowing here. I remember asking one of the nurses if it was normal for your pee to be glow in the dark. It took her a minute but she finally realized I was joking. She didn’t think it was nearly as funny as I did. Then you start to wonder if some people really believe that. I had visions of playing a practical joke on someone, should I?
I think most people have seen those little glow sticks that you can buy that glow in the dark when you break the little glass tube inside the plastic and shake them up. They come in different colors, pink, and green, yellow, orange. My daughter loved playing with those things; she just thought they were so cool. I found one that hadn’t been used yet and broke it open one evening, cut the end off of it and poured the contents into the toilet. Now keep in mind all of us at the house had joked about my eyes or pee glowing in the dark. Yea, you guessed it, I cut the light out and there wasn’t much glowing going on. Next time, I made sure I had a couple of those little things around. I poured them into the toilet and yelled for the kids to come. They both came running. I cut the light off in the bathroom and there in the toilet was my glowing “pee” or so they thought. The kids thought that was a pretty cool trick. They wanted their pee to glow too. OK, I cannot tell a lie, that never really happened but I did joke about it with older family and friends. Just a little something interesting to keep things on the light side. I told you I like to joke and kid around. It is something I thought about doing; I just didn’t want to scare anyone too terribly.
