Publisher's Synopsis
I may have Crohn's disease; but it doesn't have me! This is an openly honest memoir of the story of a young girl who - after being diagnosed with Crohn's disease at the age of 17 - did everything in her power to not let the disease rule her life. At a time when most people feel immortal, Lorraine learned firsthand how challenging this disease was going to be. After years of persistence, determination and often confusion, Lorraine shares the steps she took to educate herself so that she could ultimately help others. Lorraine speaks openly about her dancing career, nutritional battles, and fitness quests. "IF YOUR DREAMS DON'T SCARE YOU; THEY AREN'T BIG ENOUGH!"
