Wow, so thrilled to read your new blog and learn that you get to study abroad! What a wonderful blessing!!! (I love the name you chose for the blog too -- very clever! :D ) I agree w/Brian'sMom -- we want to see a recent picture!

This is good news! Praying that you will improve and feel better soon.

What a beautiful little baby Elisha is! Thank you for the picture. I know you are proud!! I am so sorry about Elvis having pneumonia, and about the ER. That was a couple of days ago though; how is he feeling now? I hope he is better and that everyone is home. Saying a prayer right now...

Wow, I've been following your story for months now but don't think I've ever posted a comment to you -- but I just had to say congratulations on the birth of little Elisha Stormchild!! What a pretty name! I know she is a beautiful baby and would love to see a picture if you can post one. :hug:

Mickey and Crohnsdoesntexist, I never did thank you both for your posts of 3-12-12 (better late than never). Lots of helpful information there. How are both of you doing now?

Thank you for the update! Great to hear that you're doing so well!

Wow Mickey, I'm sorry you reacted to the clay and glad you didn't take too much of it. Did the clear liquid diet help with pain also? My husband's symptoms are fairly controlled now, but he is having some pain and I'm trying to find something to help. I'll check into the Healthy Trinity...

Thank you for the replies. I haven't posted on here in months because I forgot my password, and just finally had it reset. Can't believe it was last June that I started the thread! (And thank you, Crabby, for bumping it for me.) Spooky, how is your husband doing now? I hope he is feeling...

Home within a week! What wonderful news!! :thumright:

Just wanted to let you know I found your blog last week (thanks to Mr. Ziggy's thread alerting us) and have been keeping up with your progress and praying for your full recovery. It is AMAZING what they are doing with you, and also with Mr. Ziggy's transplant success (I read his whole blog...

That concerns me M2M because everyone I've heard of being on Entocort only stays on it for a short time. Of course, come to think of it, I don't know of anyone 'in person' being on Entocort, just what I've read online and in this forum. ETA: I'm glad to hear your daughter is doing so well...

My husband has been on Entocort for roughly two years now, and his GI wants him to continue as long as it's working. He just went in for his yearly check and the doctor said the more he reads and hears about Entocort, the more he thinks it's best for a patient to stay on it. At first my...

Sounds good Aqua - thanks so much!

This is good information; thanks Lisa*Lisa! My husband suffers with Crohn's and I'm always looking for natural things that might help him. (He does take Entocort.) The only other natural thing he's doing now is aloe vera juice. I like Tropical Traditions; we've never bought their coconut...

My husband has been having a Crohn's flare for the last few days. I'm always researching 'natural' ways to help him, and was reading about Bentonite clay (to detox the colon AND control diarrhea) and wondered if any of you have tried it, and if it works? I was specifically looking at Dr...

My father was told by his doctor to use Konsyl - it's supposed to be more effective than Metamucil.

Hi DaMuuule - I'm new on here today too, and like you, don't have Crohn's myself, but my husband does. I know just what you mean about watching someone you love suffer with this disease and not being able to do much to help. :(

Hi Dayz. Thank you for the welcome!

Hi Carol, I'm new here too. Wow, reading your story is very much like my husband's. Sam had IBS (or at least that's what they called it when they'd ruled out other things) for about 20 years. He went through another round of it a couple of years ago. At first we didn't think much about it...

Hi everyone. My husband Sam was diagnosed with Crohn's about two years ago and since then I have been visiting this forum to search the information, or to read about others' experiences. Finally decided to go ahead and register so we can actually ask questions. (Should've done that from the...
