Alison Arngrim aka Nellie Oleson Tweeted these pictures of her and
Melissa Gilbert aka Laura Ingalls goofing around. But before think that The Prairie Bitch finally got her ultimate revenge on her nemesis, the two Little House on the Prairie actresses were Tweeting for an important cause. Now that Half Pint is almost a half century, she has to go for a colonscopy and her old friend joined her. The two women agreed to live Tweet as much as they could to get the word out that it is important that people need to start getting the exam when they reach their mid-40’s.
But it wasn’t all seriousness because they also joked about it. Alison Tweeted, “Me & Melissa survived puberty together…now we attempt to conquer middle age! It’s colonoscopy time!” And then after the procedure was over Melissa Tweeted this about the wheelchair photos, “noooo! Not down the hill!!” As you can tell she didn’t push her down the hill, but she did push her into the elevator and what a reaction she got. As you can tell after such a serious, but much needed test they had laughs and that makes it all seem a lot better. As Alison put it perfectly. “Worried about having a colonoscopy? Bring a friend and turn into a “fieldtrip” like Melissa and I did!” Since we are all going to get there at some point, follow their example…just don’t Tweet pictures and do the Katie Couric.
BTW if you want to read more of their Live Tweets from the colonoscopy you can check out

BTW on a more fun note, how cool is it to see that Nellie and Laura are still friends after all of these years and don’t they both look gorgeous!
