@pcfromfm , Thank you. Even though this disease cannot be cured it can be lived with and you show us that. We each find our own way of coping and as we share it with others we are each able to add something else to our "coping bag of tricks".Some have terrible struggles and my heart just breaks for them because I have felt the pain, bloating, nausea etc. but generally it can be manageable as the "study 92 patients" shows us.
Again, positive minded people like you are a great inspiration for those that suffer so terribly and for each and every one of us.
Regarding your mention of family, I think a husband that will never retire is such a rare virtue in today's world, you are very lucky. 14 grand children really shows that life has a great purpose.
Best wishes,
@vdouglas
