It’s time for some potty talk! Amanda spent more than a decade hiding a chronic illness because she was embarrassed by it. Essentially, living with ulcerative colitis causes you to poop blood. Everyone uses the toilet, but talking about bowel movements remains a taboo topic. This caused Amanda, like others living with an inflammatory bowel disease, to suffer in silence. It wasn’t until Amanda learned to accept and embrace her journey with colitis – was she able to feel empowered enough to take control of it.
