I'm here to share stories, offer support to those who suffer from IBD, and their loved ones, and listen to YOU. Welcome to my journey with Crohn's

ABOUT

My name is Suzy, but everyone who knows me, call me Suz. I’m a strong woman, wife to an amazing husband, Ryan, and Mommy to three AMAZING kiddos. Lucy is 7, Alice is 5 and Guy (our Leap Year baby) is 2. When I'm not chasing our kiddos, I enjoy running. I have run 4 marathons and several half marathons in support of the Crohns and Colitis Foundation. I started this blog as a way to cope with my disease, but what happened next was a beautiful thing. I started hearing from all over the world. I am here to share my journey, offer support and be an inspiration to all of my fellow IBD Warriors. I invite you to join me in all the crazy beautiful things in my life, as well as share how Crohn's fits into all of this.
