Looks like a great site. I'm very fortunate that my Crohn's is doing well enough that I'm not particularly looking for more information, but I'm very happy to help others.

Thank you so much. I think there are two sides of the spectrum: patients that are in dire need of help and information, and patients that are 'veteran' and have a lot more information to give. I think these two sides of the spectrum actually work really well in concert. Experienced patients helping new and sick ones. I think both of these groups get a lot out of that interaction. It's really empowering to help others, especially when they really need it.
