Episode 23 - Talking about mask wearing and other social situations with IBD!

Welcome to episode 23! Today's topic is a very popular one about mask wearing. This episode is not about the efficiency of masks or telling anyone what they should do. It is simply to teach understanding of why you will still see some people (in the IBD community) wearing masks. We hope it creates to more respect and a different perspective on why some people are still masking up. We also go into social situations and how we handle them. We are family friendly and want kids to be involved! Listen together, separately, but ultimately we hope we bring some attention to some well deserved topics on chronic illness.

I was at Scripps Jefferson today. The place was packed … probably getting year end stuff done. I looked around and out of all of those people I was the only one except the staff with a mask. 😷

We see the same at Rady's! We were there Tuesday and there was only one other family besides us wearing a mask. That is exactly why we wanted to bring it up because so many people don't wear them, it is important to remember there are still people who have to wear them. To be understanding. Just like you with all you are going through!

A Hi from our son Micheal(11 crohns). We’ve been struggling the last month trying to wean off budesonide for the third time and not looking great… he’s been on Stelara for about six months after failing Remicade. Hopefully we can find a combination that will work to get him feeling better.

Hi to Micheal!! We are so sorry to hear about this struggle.
