DreamfulSpirit- I am just curious (and forgive me if you posted this previously)- how was it that your mother had a colonoscopy at age 49 instead of 50?

My mom said she noticed blood in her stool back in October and that's what prompted her to go. My grandfather, her dad, passed away from colon cancer in 2008 and he was only 71. He was diagnosed a few years before, and had major surgery and everything. When he was initially diagnosed, they believed he had the cancer at least 6 years prior.
My brother and I will probably end up having colonoscopies before we're 40.
