RE: Crohns & Colitis Awareness Week - My story in a Nutshell!
Wow, an almost half body weight loss in one year? That sounds horrific... I'm not totally sure what a j-pouch is, but I guess that is what you are showing off in first photo?
Somehow, the photos and the topic are a hilarious mismatch! You look so happy... to have Crohns & Colitis!
20kg of that was in a month, was skin and bones, even my muscles wasted away. Crazy....
Haha I know right, Insta doesn't like depressing images haha. Plus life now is good in spite of Colitis. Also i didnt take many photos when I was sick as I hated everything and never wanted it recorded. A mistake in hindsight but still the way I felt.
The j-pouch you would never see its internal. Theu make a J out of your small intestine to create a rectum of sorts to store pre toileting. It only works if not inflamed. Otherwise it's hell. The top photo is my Ostomy bag poking out .
