An incredibly normal decade of living feels pretty incredible, thanks to my j-pouch.

Sometimes a great thing to happen is for not a lot to happen.

My second j-pouch surgery was a turning point in my ability to take a more hopeful perspective on life, on a more regular basis.

Handling a global pandemic has been a lot easier thanks to my pelvic pouch.

Over the last five years, my j-pouch has opened possibilities, kept me going in trying times, and helped me better identify what’s important in my life.

I answer five questions about living with and advocating for people affected by inflammatory bowel disease - in a video!

In a year that included a half-marathon, new relationships, and a heaping load of stress, my j-pouch served me well yet again.

When we talk about assaults on our health, we’re often told, “We’re not alone.” And there is indeed great comfort in that.

If it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a country to keep him healthy.
