there is a poor girl on their with crohn's. just by looking at her and her saying "i have disease and i am in and out of the hopistal" i knew she was going to say crohn's. her face is so bloated obviously from prednisone. she is 22 ...people were guessing her as old as 40 :(

anyways, just thought maybe you guys would be interested!

In Houston it's marketed as "TLC". I wouldn't know what you were talking about if you called it the Learning Channel!

HEY, what's wrong with looking 40????

Just kidding, I've had this DD since my early 20's and I'm now in my 40's and although thankfully I don't look "old" I know full well how this disease can take it's affect in every aspect of our lives....afterall since getting sick in my early 20's I've felt like I was in my 90's.

Can't win for losing.

aww didn't mean to offend anyone!! sorry pb4 ;) nothing wrong with looking ones age but man, this poor girl. come to find out she has been on prednisone for 6 years and still is. she told the priest/j.o.p. to make her wedding ceremony snappy cause she was flaring so bad she wasn't sure she would be able to be away from a toilet for very long.

jeez, since i was diagnosed, it seems that crohn's is popping up on all kinds of shows and even commercials. did i just never notice before?
