Why wear a ribbon?

 
"I wear it because i have HPV in genital warts " (leahwilson)

MDJunction to me

neshama48"Having Crohn's Disease for over 26 years, in the first few years, it lonely and isolating.
Though now my disease is in a near perfect remission, my friends and family are sympathetic to me, but I can not talk to them about this disease. When I stumbled across MD Junction, and met others who had the same disease I was not alone in battling the disease. MD Junction is like a second family, without the judgement or guilt of having Crohn's Disease, but they do give you love and support.

with being out of state, its hard to be right there for her, but if you want to help, just let her know that you will be there for her to talk to whenever she needs to talk. that is about the best thing that you can really do for her: just be there

The best thing to do is be there for her and talk to her often. She is going to be going through a lot and she is going to filled with a lot of information!

We practically lived at the hospital for 8 months, my aunt did. They need to know that there are people outside of the hospital that are thinking of her. Most of all, pray. She is going to need a lot of support!!!

A quick call always helps. Let them know you're here for anything you can.
