Absolutely. I will be seeing my GI next week and have this discussion with him. I always take his advice and trust him. I haven’t seen anyone indoors in my house since before covid. I always wear a mask indoors and never anywhere with a crowd. The summer has been wonderful seeing everyone...

I think moving forward that is my plan. Right now and for the next month or so I can still see everyone outside safely. But once winter hits, I will find a way safely

Thank you for the info and perspective. I find myself in a constant back and forth with being protected, and bending careful but again not missing out on too much. For example, I never saw my family last Christmas, and so I’m not sure I want to spend another Christmas without my parents, who...

I agree. I didn’t even realize we were not protected by vaccine until I read on here, the news in Toronto said nothing and has given very little info for third shots now.

This is interesting. I’m in Toronto Canada and third shot is not being given to anyone with IBD taking any meds. My GI is watching things closely and hopes soon it will be recommended.

Thank you for sharing. This is such a good breakdown.

I had a few students and their families had their own business and they could barely put food on the table, all the help promised from the government never seem to come.

I agree. 4 months for you? My lockdown here in Toronto was the longest lockdown in the world, 7.5 months of no restaurants, no salon, no in person shopping, everything closed. It was beyond terrible and devastating for so many people. I agree with your numbers, how it’s being told to us sends fear.

I agree with your post. I would rather know new hospital cases then new cases in general. Or new cases that are severely ill, I’m not sure I need to know who is home with sniffles. The third dose I think in Israel has moved to anyone 40 and older, my GI said we will be following them and the US...

Just a mom trying to navigate life and enjoy myself at the same time!

Hehe!

Yes Yes, this makes sense. My GI dr called today and said currently in Toronto, people taking immune suppressant meds don’t qualify for third dose unless it’s a transplant patient or cancer patient. He did say that he thinks in the next phase of third shots will include people like myself. So...

Where abouts is this?

What medication are you taking?

Ok, thanks for this info. I should be getting a call today so I will definitely update any info. I’m not too worried about school, last year I taught in a school that had lots of covid, with mask and shield I was well protected and went to my car to eat.

Good Morning Everyone! Has anyone read any good books people have written about their crohns journey?

Ok, I understand. And I’m sorry for your loss. It’s been a difficult time for so many.

we are all entitled to our own opinion about what is right for each of our body, just like I will decide what is best for mine. I know a lot of people that had covod, some had sniffles and some I attended a funeral. so please remember we all do what’s best for our own bodies and never assume...

I will be taking the advice of my GI doctor, I trust him with anything. also, I’m a teacher of special needs kids that don’t wear a mask, so I feel like I need all the protection I need.
