Since her youth, musician Susanne Augustin has struggled with severe abdominal pain and cramps. It took five years of numerous examinations, surgeries, and treatments before she received her diagnosis: Crohn's disease. Her own immune system attacks her intestines, leading to severe inflammation. However, despite the painful symptoms, she refuses to let them hinder her life and finds her own way to live with the incurable illness. Full of zest for life, she demonstrates how long the journey to diagnosis can take, what conventional and alternative medical options exist to alleviate pain, and above all, she inspires courage: I cannot change the fact that I am sick, but I can choose how I deal with it.
