On a (Re)Mission

When I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease in 2007, I was overwhelmed between trying to find helpful resources, support from people who understood what I was going through, and mentally adjusting to a life-changing medical need. I would search for certain symptoms, medication side effects, books, recipes - anything I could get my hands on to help cope. My goal is to pull everything together into one site, and even if I help just one person, I've accomplished something. I want people to know that they aren't alone and to hopefully share what works for some people, and what hasn't worked. In NO WAY do I have any medical training, nor do I claim to be a Crohn's Disease expert. Everything on this site is opinion...based on experiences, stories, advice, trying to find the humor within the battle, interesting articles I've stumbled upon, and helping others feel calm when your body feels out of control. I want this blog to be what I wish I had access to when I didn't know where to turn.
