My name is Pat D. and I am 19 years old living with Crohns disease. In 2009, I spent over 11 weeks in St. Christopher’s Hospital in Philadelphia.
I had a 4 week flare up, followed by blood clots that moved to the lungs, followed by an Ileostomy, followed by three seperate blockages in the intestines.
I am still undergoing some heavy duty treatments with, no doubt, more to come. Still, I will survive and will beat this and become a role model for others.
I am in a band and would like to be a part of a fund raising/awareness event. Can anyone help me?
Pat

Hi Pat, what area are you from? I know a friend with a great band that said he was interested in playing a show to fundraise as well. Are you near the Manhattan area?
