I was sitting around not learning about diarrhea when it occurred to me. I should go to Target and purchase a textbook about diarrhea. Luckily they had this book. It's called "Diarrhea". I know the authors are proud because well, they should be. I learned so much about diarrhea. I bet the authors studied long and hard when they researched all the info in this book about diarrhea. They probably went to toilets and interviewed people. I sure wish I had been interviewed on the toilet about my constant and relentless diarrhea. I would've loved to have been included in this diarrhea book. My favorite chapter was the chapter about the watery stools. It was called, "diarrhea is just watery stools". Now that I think about it, that's a great name for a chapter in a book about diarrhea. Everyone needs to read this. Can't recommend it enough. Been telling all my friends about it lately. Looking forward to the sequel. They should call it "Diarrhea Again"
