Even being in the US, my Facebook is flooded with the BBC broadcast in the UK a few days ago. And then there was that guy's article about eating stale bread the day after that and then yesterday and today the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation trying to clean the whole mess up. Reading through all of the comments on Facebook on all of these articles I am so shocked to read how little people know about THEIR disease. It's one thing to be an ignorant healthy person that hasn't a clue what IBD really entails, but it's another when it's someone that has had IBD for several years. I read someones post saying that UC was an ex-smokers disease!
How can we expect the world to take IBD seriously when it appears that even IBD'ers don't take it seriously.
Every inch of me wanted to private message all of those lost people and explain their disease to them and direct them here. I'm just do completely beside myself
