Yep I watched the movie it's beautiful and Eddie Redmayne's acting is mind blowing...I read an article which said at the special screening of the movie for Hawking, Hawking's nurse saw tears rolling down from his eyes, apparently the actor felt that's more than the Oscar's award.
I hope all goes well with your meet with GI and don't worry GI are mostly cool especially with crohnies cause they understand us upto a certain extent.
