Lindsay Ireland - Why Not Me?

<p><span style="font-family: 'Circular Std Book',sans-serif;">Would you remain optimistic if the cards of life are rarely dealt in your favour?</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: 'Circular Std Book',sans-serif;">This week's inspiring guest is Lindsay Ireland, who spent idyllic childhood summers in Vermont, riding horses, playing detective with her cousin, and living with her famous aunt and uncle, Jill Ireland and Charles Bronson, the action star of his day.</span></p> <p><span style= "font-family: 'Circular Std Book',sans-serif;">Lindsay's world changed at age eleven when she noticed blood in her stool. At first, hiding it from her parents, things got worse, and she found herself confined to a sterile hospital room, feeling invisible, with <span class="color15">severe ulcerative colitis. Lindsay had to undergo life-saving ostomy surgery. She had five more surgeries, including a</span> final operation in her late 20s that made the ostomy permanent. Then, in her early 30's, she was diagnosed with a second autoimmune disease, Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and then years later, with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: 'Circular Std Book',sans-serif;">Some people appear baffled when Lindsay Ireland says she is lucky.

Lindsay courageously confronts the challenge of loving a body that has repeatedly let her down. Despite the invisible nature of her illnesses, Lindsay perseveres, fighting to make herself seen and understood as a mother and wife. </span></p> <p><span style="font-family: 'Circular Std Book',sans-serif;">Take advantage of this heartfelt episode as Lindsay's story unfolds, reminding us of the power of resilience and the importance of having people who love you being part of your quest.</span></p> <p><span
