*About Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis
Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are painful, medically incurable
illnesses that attack the digestive system. Crohn's disease may attack anywhere
from the mouth to the anus, while ulcerative colitis inflames only the large
intestine (colon). Symptoms may include abdominal pain, persistent diarrhea,
rectal bleeding, fever and weight loss. Many patients require hospitalization
and surgery. These illnesses can cause severe complications, including colon
cancer in patients with long-term disease. Some 1.4 million American adults and
children suffer from Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, with as many as
150,000 under the age of 18. Most people develop the diseases between the ages
of 15 and 35.
We hope to see you there!!
