While this #Gutsywalk tattoo ( @getgutsycanada ) is temporary, Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis are not. 👎 Not so fun fact, Canada has one of the highest rates for Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis in the world, and the rates are rising. 📈 The #GutsyWalk really bring the community together, as well as helps, educate and advocate for more research and supports. I consider it an honour to speak about the event today. Sarah shared her journey 👏 On a positive note, I want to congratulate and thank Crohn’s and colitis Canada on its 50th anniversary for your remarkable impact. Happy birthday. 🎂 And tip of the hat 🎩 to Woopsies Poopsies and MCs Peter and Evan. #GutsyWalk #GutsyWalk2024 #IBD @getgutsycanada @GutsyWalk Bien que ce tatouage #Gutsywalk soit temporaire, la maladie de Crohn et la colite ulcéreuse ne le sont pas. 👎 Fait peu amusant, le Canada a l'un des taux de maladie de Crohn et de colite ulcéreuse les plus élevés au monde, et ces taux sont en hausse. 📈 La #GutsyWalk nous rapproche vraiment de la communauté, tout en nous aidant à éduquer et à plaider en faveur d'une recherche et d'un soutien accrus. Je considère que c'est un honneur de parler de cet événement aujourd'hui. Sur une note positive, je tiens à féliciter et à remercier Crohn et colite Canada à l'occasion de son 50e anniversaire pour son impact remarquable. Joyeux anniversaire. 🎂 Et un coup de chapeau 🎩 à Woopsies Poopsies et aux MC Peter et Evan.

Center Director @DrRosenIBD was amongst a group of experts assessing the appropriateness of existing adult MRI scoring systems for #Crohns perianal fistulas for use in pediatric clinical trails. The study was led by @dreileenc @SchulichMedDent. academic.oup.com/ibdjournal/art…

Privileged to contribute to this effort to standardize pediatric MRI assessment of perianal Crohn’s Disease in clinical trials.

@CathyGreen67 @DrZedZha This is a great reply. In big pediatric centres we are finally (!) starting to find support for parents who are struggling with sick children or just the persistent insanity of raising kids in 2023… has been a long time coming. We are trying!!!!

@DrZedZha I did a piece of research in GP practices in the 90s. We looked at psychological problems of children presenting to GPs. What we learned was mothers often took their children for one thing (often physical) and the mothers’ “one more thing” was their OWN psychological issue.

"One more thing," the patient says, right when I'm about to exit the exam room. I used to be annoyed by it. Until one day, a patient's "one more thing" was actually "the" thing she wanted to say. But she needed to feel me out and make sure I was a safe person first. So, I sat back down and listened. Then we discussed and ran tests. "You restored my faith in doctors." She took the bus just to tell me this today after making a full recovery. Her visit filled my heart with warmth and purpose. If we ask people to wait for months for their appointments, then (sometimes) hours in our offices, we can hear them out for their one more thing.

@NicolaJGI Congratulations @NicolaJGI!!! So exciting and so well deserved!!! 💃😊😊

🙏Truly honoured for this and huge congrats to my fellow awardees- highly deserving of their awards! Can’t wait to celebrate with them in San Diego

In light of emerging evidence, suggesting that pet ownership may decrease the risk of developing IBD, the choice has never been more clear.
