One Year Ago Today… I was in the hospital. On Morphine. Steroids. Painkillers. I was on disability from my job with chronic swelling, c-diff colitis, myositis in my leg muscles and more stomach pain and body aches than I can even begin to explain. It was pretty bad. Actually it was really bad. And after [...]
