Well, if she's okay to go on all of those vacations, then, I don't know what she's talking about.

Plus, even if she's not feeling well, that means that Nathan has to stay by her side 24/7?

What's getting to me is that this seems something easily treatable. As someone who was diagnosed with moderate/severe Crohn's disease last year, as she complains about cramps&how we see her going on trips&making Nathan stay home, it pisses me off.

For two months straight, I was so weak, I could barely move, and the only times I really did were to go to the bathroom with extreme&severe cramps (I won't go into gory details). I couldn't eat, even water seemed to make me sick. When I had to do a colonoscopy, I had to do the pre-prep thing (the drink you take that clears out your colon). I threw it all up because I basically had nothing in my stomach for two months. And I'm going to have this disease for the rest of my life. I have to get 2 hour infusions every 2 months for the rest of my life. And even with those infusions, I still can get horrible flare ups (I'm actually sort of having one now). She said that hers doesn't seem like it'll come back again.

There are much worse situations than mine, but if her excuse for keeping Nathan at home is, "I needed him to stay with me because I was having bad cramps" that's bullshit. Even when I was at my sickest, my parents still lived their lives, they just called to check up on me. And as for her not working? If she's had this for 12 years (apparently she has) then why now is she not working? She has before, but she chose now to not work because of her cramps? Or is it because she has a husband that made enough money from a kids TV show that she doesn't need to work?
