How long will it take? The colonoscopy itself only takes about 30 minutes. The prep begins at home the evening before the procedure. The morning of your colonoscopy youâll spend about three hours at the clinic or hospital. Then youâll return home to rest for the remainder of the day. You can usually return to your usual activities the next day.
A pearl is a hard object produced within the soft tissue (specifically the mantle) of a living shelled mollusk or another animal, such as a conulariid.
The gift of a black pearl can symbolize wisdom. The Tahiti Traveler reports that the ancient Chinese believed that pearls originated in dragons' brains and the black pearl was therefore a sign of wisdom.
