Sunday Morning Banana Pancakes was created back in 2011- the start of Heather's blog was the start of her healing journey. In 2008 she became very ill, 6 months later her was diagnosed with Crohn's. September of 2010 she became Vegan. She was one of "those people" that said she could never give up cheese or eggs - she wanted to prove to herself that she could. After becoming vegan her health improved 10 fold, she went off of all medications and has been in complete remission for over a year. She truly believes that the plant-based way of life is to thank.
