What a lovely young man. I’ve watched him grow up. I wish him all the best.
Me 2!😍🥰😘💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
Honestly ❣️
Thanks for discussing Crohn’s disease. It is often overlooked. ❤
Yep most people don’t know about it or UC until you are diagnosed or know someone that has been diagnosed.
Hello dear
What is crowns disease ?
Agreed....my daughter was diagnosed with it in 2019....sometimes are good and other times not so much but she keeps pushing
@@handwipes9593 it's explained in the video
“All three brothers are focusing on their health” 👏🏽🙌🏽
Oh, I love him. Crohn’s Disease is so difficult to live with. My goodness. Tyler is a genuinely heroic person. I am so glad he is surrounded by loving support. I love someone with Crohn’s.
Having gastro issues are so frustrating!!!! It doesn't help when no one takes you seriously, and takes years to get diagnosed! I feel his pain because I've always dealt with them. Thanks for spread awareness about this particular one.
I'm going through this now as well and doctors won't listen to me. They keep asking me if I have anxiety issues 🤦🏾♀️
It’s so weird how nobody listens like it’s not hard to order test and listen to your patients…especially if no one is asking for pain meds like just order the lab work or the ct scan.. they want people to have health coverage just to not be seen or taken serious by providers🤦🏾♀️
@@juicymiss87 Exactly!!!
YES!!!! It took YEARS of constant pain, bloating, etc. before the doctors finally took my mom and I seriously and tested me for Celiac Disease!! It's crazy how such a "small" ingredient can cause so much pain and damage to those of us with Celiac.
I eat mostly plant based/ vegetables (lean meat 1-2× a week is good too), cut out dairy, take sea moss, a multivitamin, and Vitamin D3, I exercise, and drink a lot of water with a splash of lemon. With this regimen, I started thriving. Don't know if that helps anyone, but that major lifestyle change helped when doctors wouldn't/ couldn't. It's not a complete fix, but my digestive health became very, very manageable. I also had to remove stressors. My faith in God is ultimately what keeps me. ❤
Wow I heard of Crohn’s disease but I never knew exactly what it was. Wishing him and his brothers great health ❤
These auto immune "invisible" illnesses really require resilience. Chronic illnesses are hard, but there are ways to live a fulfilling life.
Crohn’s is no joke 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾. He’s an amazing actor and I pray he stays in remission.
Damn.................I'm so glad to still see him. He will ALWAYS be Legendary in my Childhood.
My son was diagnosed with Crohn’s when he was 12yo. Had no idea what that was. Almost lost him, but he had a great Peds GI team and he’s doing well now at age 24. So glad that Tyler’s sharing his story.
Praise God 🙏
Wow he is an amazing actor and hero for pushing through his illness, wishing him the best of luck with his health journey heart ❤️🙏🏾 ♥️🙏🏾
Yeah! 😍🥰😘💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Crohns is very tough. Bravo 👏🏽 to him for speaking out about it
I love this so much. When I was sick I found comfort in searching for celebrities who had this disease. That's when I learned about this actor.
That's crazy his intestines had issues healing after a resection.
I had that emergeny surgery too back in 2018. I'm in remission these days and avoid food known to spike inflammation markers. I'm the healthier I've ever been.
Sending love to all those IBD warriors out there 💜
IN THE NAME OF JESUS HE WILL BE HEALED!!!! Isaiah 53:5 “But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes, we are healed.” (NKJV) The ultimate plan of God is not divine healing but divine health. It does not matter what the doctors say, it does not matter what people say, BECAUSE GOD HAS THE FINAL SAY SO! THIS DISEASE WILL NOT BREAK TYLER! IN THE NAME OF JESUS I COMMAND YOU TO BE HEALED!!!! IN THE NAME OF JESUS YOU ARE ALREADY HEALED! Mark 1:40-42 “A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees, “If you are willing, you can make me clean.” Jesus was indignant. He reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately the leprosy left him and he was cleansed. IN THE NAME OF JESUS TYLER YOU ARE ALREADY CLEAN!! GOD SAYS TO HAVE FAITH! IF YOU HAVE FAITH THEN YOU ARE ALREADY HEALED! AMEN!🙏🏾🙏🏾💙💙😊😊
Crohns is not talked about enough
Omg I never knew of this disease nor his diagnosis May God help continue to heal Tyler James Williams and any other person diagnosed with Crohn’s disease .❤
Yes, yes in Jesus’ name, Amen.
So glad that him and Brian Austin Green are talking about this more. Should help alot of people
I knew Tyler had it, even that he had an ostomy bag, but I never knew Brian Austin Green had crohns
@@kjdnyhmghfvb Brian has ulcerative colitis
I feel his pain with myself also losing my large colon and then some. This is an everyday issue I deal with just to live the best quality of life. Pain, abdominal, stomach, intestinal issues……I don’t let this get me down. I enjoy life to the best way I can. ❤️
Crohns is not talked about enough
& he still performs incredibly ❤😢
Healing for you Tyler
My brother lost 25 lbs in a week when his Crohn's Disease first started. He writhed in pain for hours on the couch every day for that whole week that he stopped eating. Thankfully they diagnosed him after two weeks. The pills are INSANELY expensive. He doesn't take the full amount of pills to save money, but he's cut certain foods completely out of his diet so the Crohn's isn't full on triggered (such as corn, etc.). The pill bottles were $450 out of pocket when he was first diagnosed, and I believe he was supposed to take it 6 or 8 times a day, which he couldn't afford without going into debt. The price for his pills has gone much higher now to $4700 pre-insurance 😳 Thankfully he has really good insurance right now and didn't have to pay close to that full amount for his medication. He's been doing so much better these last few years especially. I have another friend who has a constant battle with her Crohn's from the time she was a teenager. It's really a pretty scary autoimmune disease.
Yes, it takes a lot of will to eat right in America. There are so many restaurants and grocery stores serving trash because pesticides, gluten, soy, milk, cheese, and corn is in almost everything. I drink lots of smoothies and eat a pescavegan diet because I'm sensitive to so much. Once you cleanse your body of trash, your body will not tolerate a backslide without letting you know. It's hard.
@@justmeprematee I think you misunderstood me. It doesn't matter if you cut out all the "junk" from your diet if you have Crohn's Disease. Even with "clean" eating, diet alone isn't enough to manage the disease. Thankfully, there is medicine to help, though it definitely doesn't completely heal someone of the disease.
I think that's great that you have gone on your own health journey, but saying that Crohn's was caused by poor eating alone is belittling those who have struggled with the disease and eaten healthy.
I'm sorry to hear that you are so sensitive to different foods. It definitely is a struggle to eat at restaurants with those sensitivities. I have Celiac Disease and understand the damage different kinds of foods can do to those who are sensitive or allergic to them. I'm glad you have found a way to eat things that help you feel healthy and well. That said, most people do not have the food sensitivities we have and don't need to cut everything out of their diets that you described as "trash" (gluten, dairy, soy, corn are all ok for those without food sensitivities and allergies. No need to put others down for eating differently and not having the same food struggles you may have experienced).
So true i went through all of that
I hope everything goes well and better for Tyler! He's so young and full of light and potential! Of course I'm a big fan of this show and "Everybody hates Chris" lol, including his younger brother, Tyrell off of Lab Rats. Sending my prayers and blessings to all 3 of them and their fam!
God bless this young man. My late husband was diagnosed with Crohns when he was just 20; he had an extremely difficult case, all except a very few inches of his colon had to be removed. Thankfully my husband was able to have a successful career as a teacher for about 30 years before his health deteriorated. His doctors at UC Hospital came up with innovative ways to treat him. Praise God for UC Hospital, his life was extended for about 5 years. It is a horrible disease. UC Hospital is doing a study and research on the disease. I hope the best for Tyler James Williams and his brothers.
I thought I had Crohn’s disease, when I was younger. But it was bad gastrointestinal issues; that was primarily caused by processed foods. It interfered terribly with my HighSchool life. I was able to heal myself with; eating home cooked foods, getting rid of dairy, and eating natural-raw garlic daily.
Aw man. Scaring me now. I eat alot of processed foods, ready-to-eat meals, soda everyday, cereals like fruity pebbles, or any kind of graham cracker or chocolately flavor. Able to get insurance this year. Would I need to look for a GI doctor or do a full body physical first?
@@t.d.8765 Unfortunately, I cannot give you medical advice specifically; as I’m not a medical doctor, just a Psychologist, PhD. But from what I know, gastroenterology, will be able to answers specific questions & provide sufficient testing.
@@t.d.8765I think you need to see a physician first and then get referral ❤
@@t.d.8765 Try to work on eating healthier if you can. Even if it’s just one healthy thing a day. Future you will thank you ❤
@@t.d.8765 Look at the sick elderly people and healthy ones and know that their diet is the difference. Choose which you want to be and eat accordingly. Your health and years don’t have to be stolen from you. You are eating early death and cancer everyday with the diet you mentioned.
I wish him nothing but the best success.🙏🏿❤️🎯💯
GOD, I ask that YOU deliver this young man from anything that is not of YOU. In JESUS Name. Amen and Amen.
Amen
Amenn
I am 52 years old. I have had Crohn's Disease since 31 . I have had 2 surgeries. I have been in remission for 7 years. I am not on any medications thank God. I'm eating good and don't eat or drink anything that I don't suppose to. It's been a hard journey but it's 2023 and I'm alive!!!
🙏🏾Blessings May you receive a healthy breakthrough
I knew a young well 40 something years of age woman who passed from Crohn’s. I did not know it could b that serous 😔
Omg😢 really I have crohns that’s scary I didn’t know you could die from it..R.I.P to your friend..also if you don’t mind sharing was it the pain that killed her?
@@tlady907 It's a chronic illness and Ulcerative colitis is similar they both can increase risk of colon cancer as well 😓😓
Oh wow! I’m glad he came forward to tell his story. My daughter has Ulcerative Colitis, thankfully she’s been in remission for 5 years.
He still fine af 😍
YAAAAAAAAAASSSSS😍🥰😘💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
I “dated” a guy who had Crohn’s disease and it’s no joke. It had to get treatments every 8 weeks and messed with his eyesight.
Why you calling it
I have so much more respect for him than I already did 🥺🥺🥺
He’s such a great actor I speak healing over his life
Can't believe Noah left him behind on The Walking Dead
Everybody haaaaatees Chris
I love how they say he is from this show but not from everybody hates Chris 😂
Because everybody hates Chris is a black show to them that show doesn't matter because it was more of a black show Kind of like Jim Carrey became a star on in living colors they will skip over that fact but if snl would have hired him and he became a star there it would be the first thing they mention to them black shows don't matter
@@kim_fd8938 wtf are u talking about
@@lunatic5162 I’m just as confused, Abbott elementary is a show with many different types of people in it 😂 I was just saying I knew him from his OG show lmao
@@emilyadams9652 I`ve had brain trauma reding this human`s comment XD
Exactly❗️❗️❗️
Very encouraging. I’m happy to hear he has a strong family unit to support him as he supports them. What a great big bro!
Wow ! I didn’t know he had that ! I have a friend who has that as well . This makes me love him even more for opening up !
I’ve noticed how skinny he was getting 💜I’m praying for him
You never know what some ppl are going thru! I've always thought he was such a talented young actor and tried to watch the shows he was on. I thought he looked thinner but I noticed his muscle gain. Still a handsome young man and prayers that his health will continue to get better each day!
I love the awareness that this video is raising for those who are suffering from Chron's Disease. Thank you for posting this.
This title seriously says "About Elementary" star when all these unknowns out here get their names used somehow? Put a name up, we all know him from EHC.
Pete Davidson has this disease too. My goodness. Glad they are all taking care of their health.
Abbot is a great show !
As someone with Crohns and Celiac, the two least sexist diseases.
😂😂😂Same, we’re so hot lol🫣
I absolutely loved your pixie cut when you had it 🥰 and I just love the way hubby loves on you 🤗
I love him so much. He's a treasure.
Thank you for discussing Crohn’s disease ❤
Seeing chris from his teens to his adulthood is amazing and I hope he is going to be ok, I don't want nothing bad to happen 😔🙏🙏🙏🙏
I'm glad he's thriving and living with Crohn's. My uncle died in April after years long battle with Crohn's
I have Crohns disease. Took year's to find out. Mainly because my doctor said because I'm AA she believed it was gallstones(that is more common in AA’s) I found a new doctor and I'm getting better
I'm glad his open to talk about it or let it be public.
Crohns is worse than labor pain. I’ve had surgery. However, it can be very depressing and it makes you so weak at times.
Crohns or any gastrointestinal problems are a horror and a pain. It’s a constant struggle.
I'm a patient living with chronic Chrons disease, diagnosed with this in 2020.. It's not easy to deal with but by taking Humira biweekly helps maintain the disease immensely, prayers to you Tyler and others who may suffer from this💜 we're more resilient and stronger than we know!
I definitely feel his pain, Been living with Crohns for 6 years! Very painful!
I have ulcerative colitis which is closely related to his, I appreciate him being comfortable with talking about it
I have IBS. It is really difficult to live with.
Yeah but IBD can lead to serious health issues because it's the immune system attacking the G.I. Tract. I thought I had IBS but I turned out to find I had IBD after having a colonoscopy done.
Everybody loves chris
I was diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease at 9 years old. It's a very hard disease to deal with, and you also need to keep an eye on your liver.
he's so handsome 😍
YAAAAAAAASSSS😍🥰😘💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
We modify plants, and animals then turn plant matter into meat!! And then WE consume these abominations and they then modify US. And we fail to make the connection. 😢😭
I hate that he struggles with this. & everyone who suffers with it.
😢 Getting checked for this…this jus made me feel a bit less anxious..i hope he and others continues to stay well ❤
abbott elementary star ? tha real niggas kno det it's chris frm errybody hates chris 😹.
Why not use his actual name in the title? Why reduce him to “a star from apple elementary”
Please do not let these Doctors convince you to cut out ur intestines or live on antibiotics. First try stopping processed foods, and test out elimination diets
Ohh thank you Tyler I got the disease at 23 living with crohns is horrific 10 operations later I lost intestine thank you 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Good for Chris, Gregory Tyler! 😆 Lol Yes, but seriously my friend almost died. It takes a lot of will to eat right in America. There are so many restaurants and grocery stores serving trash because pesticides, gluten, soy, milk, cheese, red meat, pork, and corn is in almost everything. I eat a pescavegan diet because I'm sensitive to so much myself. It's hard.
You mean “everybody hates Chris” star!! Haven’t heard of that other show, but now Ik he’s in it I must watch😍
People don't know how this feels and think u are crazy
Almost died by Crohn’s disease?! Poor babe.😔
Thank you Tyler. I have Crohn’s diseases Thanks for bringing attention to this disease.
I also have Crohns Disease...and I saw this and just had balancing tears. I haven't know anyone with Crohns maybe cause I am in Kenya and it is not common here.
Crohns can lead to cancer. So this just makes me remember Chadwick Boseman.
I Like him so much stay healthy and a good person and actor...
YAAAASSS!!!😍🥰😘💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💓🖤💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋

God Bless Tyler Williams Health Its So Much Goin On N The World Life Is Too Short Gotta Live Life To The Fullest
God does miracles. Hearing his story he lost 6 inches and it almost killed him, I had 16 feet removed. I have only 4ft left yet God has it functioning as normal. God does miracles. I was in the hospital for months, had 7 blood tranSfusions, most small intestine removed, heart failure, went to 105lbs and more. Almost died and had 4 major surgeries. God does miracles. I ended up miraculously bouncing back and have gone on to have a very big dance, acting and singing career. We need to know our struggles but more importantly, we need to know GOD DOES MIRACLES! I am the proof you may have needed to encourage your faith.
🎵 Everybody Hahaates Chris 🎵
Put some respect on tjw… bro is not a “Abbott elementary actor”
Damn I'm sorry to hear about that. I just looked up Crohn's Disease and it sounds horrible. It's also something I would not share with the world, too personal in my opinion. Ppl don't need to know if I have it. All the best to Tyler, I hope he can overcome it.
I know it's sad to have a disease but to see your sibling suffer too 😔
Its awful. Hurts so bad. And no one understands.
I remember him from Everybody Hates Chris
Everybody haaaates Chris ❤
Horrible disease!
The first I saw him was on everybody hates Chris I am glad he is doing better
Remain strong and tough, bro. God has your back ✊🏾
😮😢😢❤❤❤❤ praying for u ur a hell of a actor my dude get better soon
I remember they were roasting this man for being skinny in one of his awards show pictures, and I'm glad other people came to his defense and reminded them that Chadwick had to hide his disease until he passed >:(
since everyone hates chris i knew this dude was a stud, God Speed
I love Abbott Elementary❤
Me 2!💓🖤
I have Crohn's and need surgery to fix 2 fistulas, but I can't get it due to no health insurance.
