For those of us that have hidden ailments that we do the best to keep hidden, I feel ya! It seems like at least 1-2 nights per week I deal with insomnia. Being tired all day does not bode well for someone with Crohn’s Disease (stomach issues) Today has been a tough one for me. So much so that I asked my wonderful wife to drive me to work. I never thought I’d be so tired that I didn’t feel comfortable driving. Except for that time I feel asleep at the wheel. I’ve never admitted this to my Mom. So, Mom if you’re reading this, I apologize for lying about it. I was scared and didn’t want to get in any more trouble than I already had been at that time. I was in my early twenties and was driving in the middle of the night to Ocean City, MD. I thought I was invincible, I thought…this won’t ever happen to me. Well, it did. I dozed off and the car veered off the road and into a ditch. I woke up with my foot on the gas pedal and headed straight for a small tree. The tree broke my momentum and I broke the tree. It was an experience I’ll never forget and one I’m not proud of. Catch ya next time. Be well…
