I so want to check out this book -Coping With Crohn's: The Pain and the Laughter, by Sonia Glover. I really think its so important to retain your sense of humor and find ways to laugh and live your life as well as you can. We have a crappy disease (literally - LOL) and its also just really not the most sexy disease out there, so humor can help so much in finding the strength to deal with it on a day to day basis.
From the Amazon.com review page:
Coping with Crohn's has educated me about Crohn's in a way that no text ever could. It tells Sonia's story, but it also tells the story of many others who cope with the same problem. It opens your eyes to a disease that still has no cure, only treatments. This is a personal story that shows the pain and frustration that Sonia experienced, but also the strength, courage and downright pigheadedness she has to keep on going and not give in to defeat. --Dr. Jacqueline M Elliott, BN, MD, CCFP
