About me:
Hello everyone! I'm from Brazil and the reason why I'm here, is that my mother is diagonsed with Crohn's Desease for quite a few years now, I just came across this forum and tought it might be useful and maybe I can help her with something.
About my mother:
She was diagnosed when I was still a kid, back then, I didn't understand much about what whas hapenning, but as I grew up, I realized the seriousness of the situation. In 2009, when I was 14 years old, thigs got really bad with my mom and she had to be hospitalized in the ICU. Her conditions were very abd and she almost died. Luckly, she got treated and came back from the hospital better than ever, she started gaining weight and soon started working, wich was a cruicial advance to her mental state since she loves her job and it keeps her very motivated. After some years she had another drawback in 2013-14, but much less severe than the last, she was treated with Humira and became good again. Nowadays she is starting to get bad again, Humira stopped working due to psycological reasons, according to her doctors, because she's been living some real stressful situation with her parents who are getting very old.
