Well...

I have neglected to tell this until I knew for sure it was going to happen... on this date....

I have been having trouble with my Crohn's Disease with problems I have never had before.... Also...throw some Aspeger Syndrome in the mix and you get Me....

Its hard enough for me to cope with my Asperger Sydrome sometime. with ordinary life changes..... But how many people do you know with a High Functioning Autism and Crohn's disease plus weighs 425 pounds (tried to ask the surgeon about a Lap band and he said no because of my Crohn's) with Crohn's Disease you imagine a skinny person... not a 400 pound plus person.. So I have never been the poster ad for crohn's... But now I have having clots of red when I go to the men's room... which is something I really have not dealt with before in my experience with crohn's.... of course I am only 20 soon to be 21 in March and I have had 2 previous colonoscopies through out my life....


So basicly what I am trying to say is... keep me in your thoughts and/or prayers as december 20th is clean your intestines out day.... which I never have decided which is worse... the colonscopy itself or Prep day before.... they will be puting me under Anestesia so i wil be out....during it...(since of my large body I don't think they want to try it while I am awake.. or half awake.... )


And I may end up being in the hospital because of the red in the pot with stool.... and go figure my PSP just died... but its in the shop and it may not be with me to post things if I do end up being in the hospital...

Just pray/think Good thoughts about me and Pray/hope I don't have to go inpatient because of my Crohn's.... Becaue I want to see National Treasue 2: Book of Secrets.... that day or at least that weekend....

I just got off the phone with my Youth Counselor at our church, and there will be 137 people between the ages of 13 and 22 in a prayer chain for you. God is a miracle worker, and we will have you in prayers and thoughts both of those days mentioned and for the days up to and including Christmas Day.

Just a thought, after all this is over, I can tell you how I lost almost 200 pounds in 40 months and I didn't need a lap-band or anything to help. And I didn't starve myself to death doing it. I went from 457 pounds down to my 'svelt' 272 in those 40 months and I have good short term and long term goals as far as my weight goes.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time of the year, and you take care and put your faith in the hands of God.

Thanks DVDJunkie.. I greatly appreciate it...

I know that you know how it feels to have surgery and/or procedures done... maybe not like mine (crohn's) But I also had foot surgery once... I had a huge Plantar's wart back before they had the over the counter stuff designated... Like about 9 years ago.... and it almost got the nerve in my foot but luckily we had the surgery before it got to my nerve within my foot...anyway I ended up having plastic surgery to remove the wart... and afterwards they put a short leg cast on my leg and foot...... Boy the weirdest look is when I got was when the Janitor at the Elementary School I was in asked me "what happened to your leg/foot" and I replied I had a wart removed.... Boy did I get a weird and odd look from him.. and many others.... gave me the same confused look

Then there was the time a Moth flew into my ear... It ended up being that it flew through my Ear Tube that I had right into the Ear Canal... I actually felt the moth flapping its wings in my head... I kept on telling my mom but she insisted that there was no moth in my ear.... I was like 6 years old at the time.... Then she got advice from a doctor to put ear drops in my ear to kill the moth kinda jokingly the doctor said... But then I said about 5 minutes later "It's Dead... The Moth is dead in my ear... its not flapping it's wings... It Dead" So My mom then got very worried then and took me to the ER which was about 30 minutes away at the place I was living... and it turned out I was telling the truth.. One of the doctors saw a wing through his ear checker so he vacumed it out and out came a little moth dead and wet with ear drops on it.....

disneyboy20022- I got misty-eyed reading that. I will pray for you. I wish you would get all better and wouldn't have to deal with all of this medical "stuff" anymore.

And that moth-in-the-ear story kind of grossed me out- dead animals freak me out, and to have one living in your ear...ewww!

I'll think of you!!! You're really having a hard time lately, I am so sorry, but I hope everything will be fine.
A friend of mine has Crohn's too and she's doing pretty good, but still I see how hard living with that disease is.
And just think, when it's over, it's Christmas!!

Wow this is terrible! If it helps you feel better at all, I've been diagnosed with Asperger's, too, but they think it's "low-functioning" or at least not that big a problem (I would like to think). Like really mild autism. Anyway, I said a little prayer, though I'm not all that religious and don't have a very good relationship with God right now, but I'm sure God'll take any prayer from anyone to help a boy like you! I prayed you would get "way better"!

I'll pray for you disneyboy.

Get well soon!

I'm very sorry to hear that, disneyboy. I'll keep you in my thoughts. Hope you get better, soon.

You'll be in my prayers, too, disneyboy!

I'm not the religious type but I'll keep you in my thoughts for sure, I have Crohn's Disease too and I'm not the lightest person you'll meet, it's probably down to the steroids though

I'm sorry to hear this, disneyboy. You've been going through a lot lately and I feel for you. You will most definitely be in my thoughts and prayers.

And dvdjunkie, I just wanted to say that what you did was amazing. Kudos to you, my friend.

Disneyboy20022, you are in my thoughts and prayers. I pray that you will come through this with flying colors, and that you will be healed quickly!

I wish you the best and hope things go as well as could be expected.

I'll keep you in my thoughts!

I'll keep you in my thoughts as well. I'm Autistic as well.

Thank you everyone for your support.. In about less than half an hour I will be heading to the hospital.. the Family Van broke down so My Grandma is coming and we (my mom and I and Grandma) will be taking her car to Barnes hosptial (its an hour away) to have the colonoscopy which is scheduled at 8:00 am central time in america... Hopefully when I update you all it will be from my home computer and not from my PSP (if its from my PSP I will have been admitted )

Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers.... I need all the prayers I can get... I couldn't sleep all night.. In fact I just finished watching Harry potter 5 on that digital download to the computer I got when buying the DVD...

So with all that said... I will update you all as soon as I can...


and again keep me in your thoughts and prayers... and thanks for all of your continued support....

Michael aka disneyboy20022

I'm praying for you, disneyboy20022- I hope that everything goes well!

IM BACK HOME

Everything went smoothly as smooth can be... The whole thing lasted from 8:55 am to 9:19 am central time in america

They did find one 7mm long polyp... which was removed and was could have been the source of the redness in the toilet.... I was out although they didn't put me under general anestesia

So I was not admitted... Thank goodness... I have a follow up appointment with the GI doctor in January

Also something that made me laugh... as I was telling the staff of myself on Jay Leno... one of the Head people who put me to sleep said with a blank creeped out looked: I saw that!! So that gave me a good chuckle!!

Yay!!! I am glad everything went fine, you're home and feeling good.
Merry Christmas!!
