Receptionist Crohn's

Again my question is...Why is it so hard to find GOOD help these days!
I just don't get it. Don't people have good work ethics anymore?
Is working 9-6 SUCH a tragedy? Or how about just try showing up to work?
I mean I would never think of calling out sick.
(Don't get me wrong I have done it-who hasn't?) But to be honest on those days that I called out sick I had this tremendous feeling of guilt overcome me that its pointless for me to even stay home..I don't even enjoy myself.
I have been with my company for over 5 yrs and have rarely called in sick. I have shown up with a bad cold, back hurting and hung over and looking green but I managed to make it through the day.
We have a receptionist who since the week she started working here has called out sick the first week. She has Crohn's disease..OK I get it your sick, you couldn't mention in the interview that you have a gastro problem? Perhaps we would have had second thoughts on hiring you? You bet your ass we would have.
Sooo she has this Crohn's thing maybe because of her heritage? (see below) Or maybe her diet? Who knows! Should I blame my big fat ass on my Puerto Rican heritage? Or how about I like to junk food and lots of it.
She smokes and drinks more than 10 cups of coffee a day..And then she wonders why her stomach is bothering her
I am not a doctor but I do have some stomach problems myself which makes me a little knowledgeable in that area.. I do know that you shouldn't SMOKE and drink 10 cups of coffee a day. She has been here maybe 3 months and has been out 2 weeks already..No joke. Part Crohn's and part neck problems. The neck problems are the kawinky dink because your a freaking receptionist of course your neck hurts.. get a head set.
Sooo our search continues to find someone who doesn't have stomach problems, can make it to work and doesn't smoke and maybe doesn't have a bad attitude.

For those of you who would like to know about Crohn's here's a little info:
What is Crohn’s disease?
Crohn’s disease is an ongoing disorder that causes inflammation of the digestive tract, also referred to as the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Crohn’s disease can affect any area of the GI tract, from the mouth to the anus, but it most commonly affects the lower part of the small intestine, called the ileum. The swelling extends deep into the lining of the affected organ. The swelling can cause pain and can make the intestines empty frequently, resulting in diarrhea.

Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory bowel disease, the general name for diseases that cause swelling in the intestines. Because the symptoms of Crohn’s disease are similar to other intestinal disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome and ulcerative colitis, it can be difficult to diagnose. Ulcerative colitis causes inflammation and ulcers in the top layer of the lining of the large intestine. In Crohn’s disease, all layers of the intestine may be involved, and normal healthy bowel can be found between sections of diseased bowel.

Crohn’s disease affects men and women equally and seems to run in some families. About 20 percent of people with Crohn’s disease have a blood relative with some form of inflammatory bowel disease, most often a brother or sister and sometimes a parent or child. Crohn’s disease can occur in people of all age groups, but it is more often diagnosed in people between the ages of 20 and 30. People of Jewish heritage have an increased risk of developing Crohn’s disease, and African Americans are at decreased risk for developing Crohn’s disease.

Crohn’s disease may also be called ileitis or enteritis.
