As she weighed in at 84 pounds, new mother and wife, Kelly Haney was too sick for life-saving ulcerative colitis surgery. After being in the hospital for weeks at a time, fighting for her life, the large doses of immunosuppressant drugs helped stabilize her enough to go home, but this 29-year-old would not accept that she would have to be on these drugs for the rest of her life. Recovery wasn’t easy, but Kelly got fanatical about her health and determined to live a medication-free life. Through effort and research, that became her reality nearly a decade ago and she no longer has any active disease in her body.
Kelly is a survivor of a life-threatening autoimmune disease and her passion is with finding healing and living a healthy lifestyle. Through her blog, Crazy Health Lady, she informs and inspires others who have found themselves on a very similar journey.
In this episode, Kelly talks about her battle with an ulcerative colitis, the benefits of a healthy diet and lifestyle, and why she is driven to help others who face similar challenges with their health.
