by John Bradley (Author)
The Foul Bowel: 101 Ways to Survive and Thrive With Crohn's Disease is the user's guide to being a Crohnie. Describing in often hilarious detail his own 30 year odyssey through Crohn's, John Bradley treats the illness as a journey of learning, highlighting 101 tips for how to better deal with symptoms, doctors, diagnostic tests, medications, surgeries, diet, relationships, career and life in general as a life-long Crohnie. The Foul Bowel demonstrates that happiness is a state of mind, not a state of health and how to take ownership for your illness and its treatment. The outcome is not just the feeling of triumphing over the medics - although that has its moments - but is a celebration of life as a Crohnie.
Author Biography
The author's qualifications include thirteen surgeries (seven major and six minor); over a hundred consultations with gastroenterologists; at least two hundred blood tests; over a dozen different drugs; having been irradiated to the Chernobyl standards; lost five-sixths of his small bowel to surgery, and had half a dozen complete strangers stick their index fingers up his butt. And he has never been happier.
