I was hospitalized and diagnosed 2 years ago. Horrible Horrible pain that I don't have to really explain to anyone here. I had severe inflammation. It took months to feel somewhat normal again. Normal meaning able to walk upright but still daily pain. No more long walks or shopping trips for me and afraid to travel.
During that same time of my hospitalization, I had found out my husband of 18 year and father of my 2 beautiful daughters was out doing things he shouldn't. I never felt so alone in my life. My perfect world came crashing down. Fighting the pain, heartbreak, shock and stress at the same time is something I could never wish on anyone.
He left, abandoned both me and my kids. Divorce was finalized,but not without the extreme stress and emotionally shock from everyone as you can imagine.
Here I am 2 years later, still having the pains, the flare ups and most recently went to ER with extreme eye pain and blurred vision. To my surprise I was told this is very common for people with Crohn's. I had developed iritis in one eye.
I am in a relationship now to a great guy. As you can imagine being betrayed after 18 years of marriage. Its hard to believe I actually found a man who is loving and cares about my health. I guess everything happens for a reason.
