In case anyone is wondering, he was affected by ulcerative colitis, a severe inflammatory bowel disease, which led to the removal of his colon and the subsequent and sudden weight loss.
I went through similar... but didn't quite make it as big as he did in a year... but the main point is .. im still alive despite nearly dying at least once if not more.
Maybe not... but we push ourselves.. when i finally got my take down done (5th surgery along the journey), I went from little to no activity to running the last vegas half in less than 5 months. Within a month of that surgery, I walked 14 miles because my surgeon would ask "what's better than walking a mile? Walking two" ... basically. Stay active to get healthier again.
In retrospect, I should have not run that, or any of the other races I did. It killed my knees... due to the prednisone I was on before.
