Today's #MotivationMonday comes from YouTube sensation @RebeccaZamolo. 3 years ago, Rebecca released a documentary chronicling life w/ #UC & and her experience undergoing surgery to remove her colon. You can watch it now on YouTube: https://t.co/OAoKpHI8te #IBD

"As anyone with a #chronicillness knows, talking about your health—and fielding the resultant questions—can be an exhausting, vulnerable act. I’d told a few loved ones I was in the hospital, but most people I knew didn’t even realize I had #Crohns." https://t.co/jdz19BOTVN
