NPR story on crohns and colitis

Post by Skyward »

Segment today on "here and now" about a woman struggling with crohns. Sorry I'm on the road and can't provide a link. Nice destigmatizing piece if nothing else. Maybe someone can find a link to the segment.

Thanks Deb! We were posting at the same time.

If anyone does listen to the segment, I'm interested to know what you thought of it (at any level.)

Thanks for posting that. I listened to the program and it was heartbreaking. Her doctor, Corey Siegel, is at the same clinic as my and Joe's GI doctor. I am going to mention the story to Dr. Nagri at my next appointment. She has gone through so much. Very interesting about the oxygen isn't it?
