[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 278988, member: 3444"] That's awesome! I wish I'd had it when difficult child 1 was first diagnosis'd with Crohn's and for that first year until he thankfully went in remission. We were deluged with advice, articles, books, diets, supplements, etc. from well meaning, but totally ignorant people. I learned to just nod my head and thank them for their concern. People don't understand when you don't get better after a week or two. And they get tired of hearing about it when it drags on for months or years. But it's important to know, and be reminded, that life with a chronic disorder or disability is still life, just a lot different than the one they know. [/QUOTE]
