Confessions of a Professional Hospital PatientCoping, Surviving and Laughing with Crohn's DiseaseWith "Electronic Patient Records"on the horizon and Political “Momentum” apparently ready to take effect, there will soon be sweeping changes that will hopefully substantially improve the quality, availability and cost of Health Care in the United States. However, the “Hospital Patient Experience” and dealing with a Chronic Illness will always present the same challenges and require the same Coping Mechanisms, i.e., Support, Laughter and Perspective. In "Confessions of a Professional Hospital Patient,” I have chronicled my 25+ Year battle with Crohn’s Disease and its associated 100+ Hospitalizations, Good-Great-Bad-Wacky and Entertaining Physicians, Compassionate, Dedicated and Sadistic Nurses, Bizarre Complications, Medicine Side Effects and most importantly: how Love, Laughter and Support got me through it all. |
