Get Your Rear in Gear has a new and improved Facebook site. Become a fan by “liking” the page, then join the conversation about upcoming events, fundraisers, health issues, and 5K recaps. The official Get Your Rear in Gear page is also a place where colon cancer patients, survivors and family members can share tips and insight about battling the disease.
A recent post by comedienne and author Brenda Elsagher is a perfect example. Elsagher is the author of Bedpan Banter, Medical Stories of Humor and Inspiration, which gained acclaim for helping patients to manage serious medical conditions with courage and humor. She shared a YouTube video on the Get Your Rear in Gear Facebook page. The song, a hilarious homage to the colorectal surgeon, was given a nod by the American Society of Colorectal Surgeons at their 2006 conference.
