Letting Go...
I've been secretly documenting my 21 year battle with Crohn's disease. It may be time to share some of it...? If I can help someone than all of this suffering will begin to change form. It could turn into something useful instead of just ruining what life I have left. It's frightening to be so vulnerable. If you scroll through any of your social media feeds 99% of it is the positive, happy, fakeness that people want others to believe is their reality. Well, let's be honest for a moment, NO ONE has a happily-ever-after life. No one. So with the risk of sounding like a whiner or a "why me" asshole I am going to attempt to put my ordeal out there. Honestly, it's terrifying! I am a SEVERELY private person! However, through all of this there has to be a purpose. So maybe in putting it out there I will find what it is... And I know there are others like me barely holding on. Maybe together we can do it... This is all I hope for...
