My puppies follow me to the potty. They won't stay put if I leave!

Same here. I have to be careful not to trip.

Think of the scar tissue on a hand, it's a little the same, hard, thick skin. If Crohn's can't be controlled, over time the esophagus wall becomes thick (narrow) and he gets growths that block it. He swallows, chokes and it comes back up. He also has strictures/stenosis in some of the intestine.

My son has crohns. He never has Diarrhea its always the opposite

All I can say is, if you swallow food and pills that travel in reverse, you don't Wait... Unless you need to lose weight and DH has no weight to lose!

Mine get stuck at times, then I'm leaning over the sink gagging trying to breath. If the kids are home when this happens they run up to watch and make sure I'm ok. Embarrassing.

He doesn't have many intestines left. My Crohn's is very different from his too.

It can be different right? I have a daughter in law that has it. She's very careful with her diet.

I lost my husband to Alzheimer’s. They said a combination as dementia has several different types..under the umbrella. Alzheimers/Frontal.
I used to work as a CNA in a nursing home then an Assisted Home Living. Saw plenty of dementia patients. Never ever even thought my husband would be ill with that debilitating disease. We were blessed to be able to keep him home to pass. My son and his wife moved in to help me when it started to get hard. Then they stayed to help me with my health problems. So grateful for them.

I think illnesses that affect the mind are like the worst kind. My mom had dementia. Heart breaking

how many surgerys has he had? Robert was in hospital for over a week but instead of surgery they kept pushing the steroids and it finally worked!

I have irritable bowel as well so I alternate between needing fiber and no fiber. He can't have fiber

He's had so many, they can't go through the tummy any more. He had to go to the big teaching hospital to get rectum removed for that reason. We had visiting nurses coming out cause they couldn't put stitches in. Used a suction machine.

We finally got the freezer camp boys caught again after they escaped the holding pen for the morning date. We are doing them in 1/3rds. Hopefully another 1/3 will be ready by next Friday or Saturday.
