I didn’t ask Becky to share this story, but I’m really glad she did. It isn’t because of the mention of my online community work, but because she brought up something important: Healthy alternatives to coping with the adversity in our lives. In Becky’s case, it’s a brutal illness and she found knitting to be her outlet (I’ll write more about what I’ve seen there). Others choose gardening, hiking, or woodworking. There are a lot of non-destructive choices, and this is just one story. More on that later. For now, meet my friend, Becky…

Many of you know that I have Crohn’s disease. What is it? Watch this. It is a great video about the disease. There now that you understand a bit about my disease I will let you know just a little bit of how I am on a daily basis.
