MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Erica, I feel your frustrations :bigbighug: I'm a bit of a control freak (ok, perhaps more than 'a bit' lol) and one thing that I have learnt in the last year is that we need to let go of that need to control everything. Learning to just go with the flow and take one day at a time has been a huge le...

Gabes and Marcia, I'm so glad to hear of others enjoying coloring in! I am thoroughly loving it and my pencil collection is growing :grin: Gabes, you are spot on with illness (or any other major life changing event) being a 'filter' for people in your life.

Thanks for sharing!

I will definitely be cutting out glu...
