Sometimes life is just too messed up! There is no better definition of warrior than you. But of course I know you have no choice. That's what makes you all the more fierce. Crohn's nor D can defeat you!

I also have a 6 yr old daughter and an 8 yr old son. Even through all my personal hell, my biggest fear is one of my children suffering through this disease. As a mother and also a Crohn's warrior, my heart goes out to you and your daughter. I've had to make some pretty scary decisions with meds as well, one being a chemotherapy pill and also Remicade. Keep your head up, patient understanding of the pain will help her tremendously. It seems to be really hard for most people to understand how debilitating an "invisible", internal pain can be. You're an awesome mommy!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08756330169657184728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8100126567446754858.post-8715377662574983902012-05-03T19:47:57.635-05:002012-05-03T19:47:57.635-05:00Oh Laura!

We will keep praying for her and your family. Don't let the fear of the Remicade win. In someways it seems kind of like the 2 edged sword of insulin: your child needs it to live (or be healthy) but it can also be deadly with no warning. You can let the fear win or keep calm and warrior on. (And so glad that you are choosing the latter!)Becky Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10440780887445338114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8100126567446754858.post-26390270968299728342012-05-03T13:25:02.927-05:002012-05-03T13:25:02.927-05:001) Please research LDN (low dose naltrexone) resea...1) Please research LDN (low dose naltrexone) research by Dr Jill Smith at Univ. of Pennsylvania. <br /><br />2) The University of Massachusetts found that the SC Diet resulted in 100% improvement over the spectrum of IBD in its variations.
