One young woman has taken to her blog to speak of the realities of living with Crohn’s disease.
People are raising awareness for Crohn’s and Colitis Awareness Week (Dec 1 to Dec 7) by posting something about their illness every day for seven days. The week is currently known as ‘seven days of IBD’.
Deciding to write an open letter to the disease itself, Jenna Farmer, a qualified Nutritional Therapist and the founder of abalancedbelly.co.uk, has written a letter which represents the painful truths of living with a chronic illness.
Jenna was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease in December 2013, after suffering with symptoms for 10 years.
