A Regimen for Remission
This log tracks my regimen of attitude, exercise, stress management, and SCD foods. Since I started this regimen in 1997, I've been able to keep my Crohn's in a drug-free remission.

Monkey-see,
monkey-don't
Even though I may have experimented beyond the SCD from time to time, one must remember that everyone is different. Follow the intro diet for 3-5 days, and stick with the SCD until you are completely symptom free for at least one year before experimenting.

"Dot-com bust" or not, there is no denying the power of the Internet. If it weren't for the web I would never have learned about the SCD, the regimen that has kept my Crohn's in remission for 4+ years, drug free. The web remains a wonderful, powerful way for people to communicate, share, support, heal, and grow!

Here's a short interview with Ev, the founder of Blogger/Pyra. And yes, Laura and I did donate to the Server Fund (but it sounds as though they really needed a Salary Fund).

Breakfast: fruit, SCD yogurt.

So Dubya wants to drill for oil in the Arctic National Preserves. To quote his father, that "wouldn't be prudent". Have you contacted your local representatives yet?

THE RAIN IN SPAIN FALLS WHEREVER THE GOVERNMENT WANTS

Tens of thousands of demonstrators, including musicians and children, took to the streets of Barcelona yesterday to protest a massive $23 billion water diversion project in Spain. The plan, which is now before the country's parliament for final approval, would divert the Ebro River in the northeast and involve the construction of 120 dams to bring water to the dry southeastern parts of the country. Activists say the project would benefit developers and the electricity industry at the expense of the environment. They estimate that yesterday's protest drew 300,000, while police say 80,000 attended. More than 400,000 protested the plan last October in the city of Zaragoza; a third protest is scheduled for next month in Madrid. From: New Jersey Online, Associated Press, 25 Feb 2001
