We are celebrating Episode 100 with two of your favorite guests, Jenn DeBeers and Russell Loo. In the past, these two memorable guests have shared about chronic illness, relationship struggles, and so much more. Today, they're here for a fun and friendly conversation filled with laughter, smiles, and stories.

During this episode, we talk about the struggles of invisible illness and anxiety and depression. The laughter starts when we discuss why football players don't scamper, what gives a tattoo whimsy, and what happens when you take the wrong ID into the bank. This episode is an easy-going conversation between three friends where you'll get to know your favorite guests a little better and laugh with us along the way. So grab a cocktail or a mocktail and celebrate Episode 100 with us!

Gals! I know this is NOT a fun or PC subject, but we must  talk about it. Bowel movements are one of the most natural of functions and a huge indicator of health. It's weird because dudes talk about this all the time; so why shouldn't we?? It's nothing to be embarrassed about.
 
You should be checking your urine color and stool consistency daily. It's part of assessing your health. So find out what your poop is telling you in this episode. We promise that it's not too gross. This is real talk (like all our episodes are) informing you of some things you really need to evaluate in everyday life.

There are tons of things that can affect your poop. We go over them. There are many  organs involved in making poop. We tell you what those are. We talk about the pitfalls of 'not going' every day and what your poop should look like. So tune in; this will be a fun(ny) one.

Megan shares with us her story of having to break up with her love of running because of her struggles with Ulcerative Colitis. You'll hear stories of her journey as it took years for her to finally feel like herself again and get to enjoy life, running, and having the ability again to challenging herself running in marathons and a Half Ironman. You'll learn that life isn't over, because it's nothing a shower and some clean laundry can't fix.

Luke and Kyle discuss the previous episode in which our guest, Selvi, opened up about the trauma caused by her struggles with severe Crohn's Disease. As always, we are hoping to open a forum for people to feel OK about sharing their struggles, no matter how personal.
Thank you Selvi for such a courageous message.

Selvi remembers the devastation she felt decades ago, when she was given the diagnosis of Crohn’s Disease. What followed was a downward spiral of unanswered questions, medications, major surgeries and even near death. Nothing worked, she was trapped in her body's prison of pain and exhaustion. She lost friendships, relationships, and even her medical career, and worst of all, her desire to live. Enough was enough, as Selvi began to explore alternatives that would finally lead to her amazing and liberating, decade long remission. Her passion lies in applying these and other methods she learned along the way, to help others. An incredible story!

Welcome to episode #12 of the Gospel for Everyone.  On this episode, we’re going to learn that the Gospel looks different for some people.  Today, we’re going to hear a story about God’s good news shining through some really difficult and challenging circumstances.  Today we have a special guest, one of our members at Mayfair, Jamie Kimbel.  

Jamie has struggled with Crohn's Disease for over 30 years, and after many years of dealing with it, was faced with very tough, life altering, and nearly fatal choices.  Jamie shares with us his story, his journey, and his prayer through all of this.

Today we have two powerful stories. Each one is as different as the disease that it’s about. Yet there is a common thread: patients want and need to be heard. You will hear from a mom who will do whatever it takes to save her son’s life.  And you will learn about a young woman who is fighting for herself and her underserved patient community.  

Guests:

Amber Freed, SLC6A1 Connect

Melodie Blackwell, COCCI

In this episode of Bowel Sounds, hosts Drs. Temara Hajjat, Peter Lu, and Jason Silverman talk to Dr. Jeffrey Hyams about the management of pediatric patients with IBD. We begin by hearing how he developed his passion for not only IBD but also functional GI disorders — and how he became the first author of the Rome IV criteria. We then ask the expert himself how he approaches the management of pediatric patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. We briefly touch on new therapies in IBD. Finally, we discuss controversial topics in the management of patients with IBD.

Learning objectives:
1. Learning how to choose therapy for patients newly diagnosed with IBD
2. Learning about the concept treat to target 
3. Learning about when to hold IBD therapy prior to surgery 
4. Learning about indications and side effects of different IBD medications including small molecules, Thiopuriens, and 5ASAs. 
5. Learning about when to proceed to colectomy 
6. Learning about how to approach a patient requesting stopping therapy.
