Why would you do that? You can steal someone's heart, but why would you steal his inflatable colon 10 feet long and 150 pounds?
The University of Kansas Cancer Center announced Friday that someone had been poaching the Gigantic Large Intestine of the Coalition Against Cancer from a collection bed in Brookside, Kansas. Yes, the big balloon organ is worth about $ 4,000. But do not you think that it can raise eyebrows if you show at your appointment that you sleep on a gigantic colon? Or try to sell it on eBay?
Plus, have a heart, instead of taking a gigantic colon. In good hands, the inflatable colon can serve a good purpose and help many lives by raising awareness of colon health. As shown in this video from the University of Kansas Health System, the inflatable colon explains how polyps can form and eventually become cancerous lesions if they are not detected and eliminated in time:
According to the American Cancer Society, there will be 97,220 new cases of colon cancer this year and 43,030 new cases of rectal cancer in the United States alone. About 1 in 22 men (4.49%) and 1 in 24 women (4.15%) will eventually develop colorectal cancer. It is expected that 50,630 men and women will die of colorectal cancer in 2018. And here are other worrying news: Studies have shown that colorectal cancer rates are rising.
The good news about colon cancer is that early detection can greatly improve your chances of survival. The American Cancer Society recommends starting screening regularly at age 45. This screening should be continued for at least 75 years. You may need to start screening sooner if you or your family has a history of colorectal cancer or certain types of polyps. if you have had an inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease), or if you have received radiotherapy treatment in the abdomen or pelvis. If your colon is 10 feet long or 150 pounds, consult your doctor immediately, or return this colon to the University of Kansas as soon as possible.

Screening can include stool testing every year and colonoscopy every 10 years. You can replace colonoscopy with CT colonography (virtual colonoscopy) or flexible sigmoidoscopy (FSIG). But this should be done every 5 years because they do not see the whole colon. And no, your smartphone can not replace a colonoscope, so please, do not put it nearby.
This is not a normal amount of poo to produce. A three-meter inflatable excrement is on display in schools in the city of Torrelodones, near Madrid, as part of a campaign to educate dog owners about the collection of excrement.

If you stole the colon from the Cancer Coalition, you're a piece of fecal matter. Please return it. You are putting pressure on those who are trying to increase the rate of colon cancer screening. As shown on the website of the National Cancer Institute, less than 70% of people undergo proper screening for colon cancer. If you really want something inflatable in this part of the body, just look for "inflatable poop" on the internet and see what you can buy. Be wary of what may fall in your search.
