Question:
My 16 1/2 year old daughter was recently diagnosed with Crohn's disease. There is some family history. I was wondering if there is a teen list, or if there are any teenage girls on this list who she could e-mail with. Although she can speak to the other family members who have Crohn's they are much older and I think she would be more comfortable with girls her own age.
Answer:
Here are a couple. Shaz already listed one of these. Teens with Crohn's Disease Website. http://pages.prodigy.net/mattgreen/ Support for Teens with Medical Problems. http://community-2.webtv.net/FrOgQuEeN15/SupportForTeensWith/ (There are a number there with crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.) http://creativegrrrl.homestead.com/ There is a Teens With Crohn’s message board at http://www.InsideTheWeb.com/messageboard/mbs.cgi/mb21315 your daughter might want to participate in. It's a very active board. It also has a link to the Teens With Crohn’s Webpage (http://pages.prodigy.net/mattgreen/index.htm). I'm currently a 17 yr old female with ulcerative colitis. I was dx when I was 16, so I probably know what she is going through. She can email me at angelic_angel...@excite.com My name is Angel, and I'd be glad to answer any questions for her.
