The Foul Bowel by John Bradley

The Foul Bowel: 101 Ways to Survive and Thrive With Crohn's Disease is the user's guide to being a Crohnie. Describing in often hilarious detail his own 30 year odyssey through Crohn's, John Bradley treats the illness as a journey of learning, highlighting 101 tips for how to better deal with symptoms, doctors, diagnostic tests, medications, surgeries, diet, relationships, career and life in general as a life-long Crohnie. The Foul Bowel demonstrates that happiness is a state of mind, not a state of health and how to take ownership for your illness and its treatment. The outcome is not just the feeling of triumphing over the medics - although that has its moments - but is a celebration of life as a Crohnie.

LOVE-IN-IDLENESS: THE POETRY OF ROBERTO ZINGARELLO (The Word Works, 2015), Terrestrial Music, War on Words, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW (Cleveland State University Poetry Center, 2010), and Trancelumination are among John Bradley's five works. Atomic Ghost: Writers React to the Nuclear Era, Learning to Glow: A Nuclear Reader, and EATING PURE LIGHT: HOMAGE TO THOMAS MCGRATH (The Backwaters Press, 2009) are three anthologies he edited. He teaches at Northern Illinois University and has received two NEA scholarships and a Pushcart Award.
