Make content about: Bill writes songs about Crohn's
After decades living with Crohn's disease, Bill began writing songs about his experience to raise donations for the hospital that cared for him.
This story
Bill has lived with Crohn's disease for more than forty years, undergoing major surgeries and periods of severe illness. Fifteen years ago, after his local hospital said nothing more could be done, he was admitted to a specialist team who helped him regain stability. He later rediscovered a poem he wrote after stoma surgery, turned it into songs, and released two albums to support hospital care.
Where you could take it
Sit down with Bill in his studio space to hear him play his songs and talk about how writing helped him process decades of illness.
