    What an inspiring talk, I wish I was as brave about my emergency surgery 11 years ago, although I only have the ileostomy. & the Crohn's of course .
    Thank you for your courage, wishing you everything that you would wish for yourself going forward.

    I had a stoma fitted 10 yrs ago. I found it very difficult to accept at first it took a while to learn to cope with it. I found your video very brave and inspiring. Well done you’re a star!!❤

    Thank you for sharing this! As someone who is facing the probability of the same fate in the future after being recently diagnosed with severe Crohn's you are very inspiring. So thank you x

      My 21 year old daughter was also diagnosed at 17 - running out of drugs that work - so, thank you so much for sharing your experience - we are working through the possibility of surgery emotionally atm

    You are very brave. I had a temporary ileostomy after going septic from my first surgery. Thank you so much for showing more light on people like us. ;

      @mdmoazzamhossain7455 I'm on a 4 week steroid course of prednisolone and started mercaptopurine a few weeks ago. I'm doing much better however I did have a few side effects that seem to be under control now. Let me know if you have other questions

    Subject : Exciting collaboration opportunity for your youtube video
    Dear [ ted x talk channel owner ],
    I am a huge fan of your content and have been inspired by your videos. I have a proposal that i believe could be mutually beneficial.
    I’d like to dub your videos into another language and upload them to reach a wider audience. I am willing to take care of all the work involved, including translation and dubbing . In return, I’m suggesting a 50 - 50 revenue share for our collaboration.
    This partnership could potentially open up new horizons for your content and help it recreate with a global audience . I’m confident that together , we can achieve great results.
    If this idea intrigues you, please let me know , and we can discuss the details further . I’m excited about the prospect of working together and amplifying the reach your fantastic videos.
    Looking forward to your response.
    Best regards,
    [ankush]
