Down every rabbit hole!!

This picture says it all… if you know, you know.

My daughter has been down just about every rabbit hole we could think of.

The recommended diets.
The supplements.
The treatments.
The endless suggestions from well-meaning people.

Every new thing came with hope — maybe this is the answer — only to be followed by disappointment when it didn’t help.

It has been expensive, overwhelming, and emotionally exhausting.

After all the searching, she finally stumbled upon a diagnosis, and with that came some answers at last.

I know so many carers and parents will relate to the cycle of hope and despair that comes with trying everything for someone you love.

Sometimes the hardest part is carrying that hope over and over again, only to watch it fade.

Have you been down similar rabbit holes before finding answers for your loved one?

So I've been in hospital now for 2 weeks with a bad Crohn's flare up. Unfortunately there is something wrong with my liver function so can not start on infliximab which was the ultimate goal. They've put me on an ng tube which I'm getting used to but have a sore throat and keep gagging on it and it makes my chest feel tight ( I'm asthmatic) Are there any tips on how to stay motivated with the tube, and how to deal with not eating solids whilst everyone around you is. Also I'm on predisolone steroids which I've found is making my skin dry and hair brittle as well as coming out. Is there any advice for this also.
