Many know I was in the hospital before and after Phoenix, what many do not know is that for all the years the industry has known me, I have been in the hospital over a dozen times and have had operations because the physical pain I deal with took its toll. I have worked from the hospital and ER room without the industry ever knowing the excruciating pain that brought me to my knees.
I fought it every waking day and every sleepless night of doubled over pain. And I worked deals while doubled over, because nobody saw me on the other side of the computer screen. I was scared I would be perceived as weak if I told I live with a serious medical condition.

As I said in my email a few days ago ... keep that Crohn's in check. Most downfalls in my life have been traced back to my Crohn's and traced further back to stress that triggered a flare-up that led to the downfall.
We've had more than a few conversations about how our bodies and souls are interconnected and I hope you do not forget your own wisdom during these troubling times. I still remember repeatedly telling myself "SHE GET'S IT! SOMEBODY ELSE GETS IT!" during or chats...one of the many reasons I was drawn to you.
Keep your body healthy (yes, I know the disease controls us and not the other way around) and the rest will follow. The one thing I know to hold true with Crohn's is that it takes cues from your emotional state.
I've always heard that our brain and digestive system are the two most closely connected parts of the body. It makes perfect sense.
