I was just on a Crohn's Facebook page and I was looking at the different issues we, as crohnies, face and how the world sees us. I've discovered that we can be quite the performers. Everyday we deal with pain, urgency, accidents, anxiety, illness, and so many other things and yet we hear all the time how great we look. Well, for one, the disease is in our gut, not our face. Secondly, we are incredible actors. Somehow we manage to get up and get out and live the same life as everyone else...in a outer appearance kind of way. Our bodies may get weak, but our spirits are strong. We handle the cards we've been dealt, smile, and live the best we know how.
