Editorial Reviews
Coping with Crohn's has educated me about Crohn's in a way that no text ever could. It tells Sonia's story, but it also tells the story of many others who cope with the same problem. It opens your eyes to a disease that still has no cure, only treatments. This is a personal story that shows the pain and frustration that Sonia experienced, but also the strength, courage and downright pigheadedness she has to keep on going and not give in to defeat. --Dr. Jacqueline M Elliott, BN, MD, CCFP
