In 2016 my son was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. The next 3 years were hellish in trying to get it under control, find the root cause, and keep his life as normal as possible. In episode 24, I shared with you all the treatments, diets, and protocols we tried and failed. We ended up seeking treatment outside the United States, and Hunter found healing and remission using a antibiotic therapy designed by Australian doctors. In this episode I update you on his progress, regression, and where he is now. It is his story that ultimately brought me to where I am today.
