Today’s post is about raising awareness of IBD to those that don’t already know about it. It’s such a hard disease to explain because it can affect people differently, and impact our lives in so many different areas! I wish I could choose just one thing I think is important for people to know, but there are SO MANY!

So, here’s what I wish people understood about life with IBD.

I DID write this post with an IBD focus, but the wording has been changed to mention UC more, as that’s the disease I am supposed to focus on. However, everything I have written is the same, whether someone has Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis.
