    Strong work. If people would only realize just how much good they can do for themselves with a little hard work and tenacity. As a nurse I see so many people my age and even younger with multiple "chronic" conditions that can be alleviated by just taking care of themselves, it is a bit disheartening.

    These are my favorite type of success stories. Love hearing that people are able to reduce or stop medication.
