mss glittery / AbstractBACKGROUND & AIMS: Because the mode of Crohn's disesae inheritance is unknown, age-adjusted risk estimates and knowledge of disesae characteristics will aid genetic counseling and modeling. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of familial occurrence of inflammatory bowel disesae in first-degree relatives of patients with Crohn's disesae and estimate their age-adjusted risks. It also evaluates agreement in disesae characteristics between generations within families with a history of Crohn's disesae. METHODS: Six hundred forty patients with Crohn's disesae and 800 control subjects were questioned about the occurrence of inflammatory bowel disesae in their first-degree relatives. Agreement for age at diagnosis, initial disesae location, disesae behavior, and number of bowel resections was determined in 68 families with two or more members affected and compared with data in 100 unrelated patients with Crohn's disesae. RESULTS: Probands with Crohn's disesae had a more frequent positive family history than controls. The age at diagnosis between probands with and without a positive family history was insignificant. Crude and age-adjusted risk elements were higher in relatives of patients, especially daughters, compared with those of controls. The age at diagnosis was older for parents than offspring but similar between siblings. Initial disesae location was especially striking between siblings. CONCLUSIONS: This study confirms familial aggregation and a high degree of disesae concordance in Crohn's disesae. The age at diagnosis and initial disesae location was especially strong within generations. (Gastroenterology 1996 Sep;111(3):597-603)

cheer2012 / David, i actually have Crohn’s Disease. i’m 17 and have had it for 2 years. i have a remadice infusion every other month and it sucks cuz i gotta sit there for 2 hours while it goes into my system plus i HATE needles so its like adding insult to injury for me. i don’t know if your sis has to have an infusion but i found that midol actually helps the inflamation go down a lot, and it might help her. also if i eat spicy food it irritates my stomach so i dont eat anything spicy, i dont like spicy food anyways but i do like somewhat mildly spicy but i find that even the smallest of spicyness hurts and can cause an attack. the pain gets pretty bad that i have to miss school sometimes. a lotta people think i fake it when i get these attacks. there are different types of ways Crohn’s can affect. there are the “can’t go often type” and there is the normal of “going often type”. So on a nicer image i think its so cool that ur being a concerened bro to ur sis, i can tell u love ur fam. u and ur fam will be in my prayers more often than u have. u r an inspiration to me, i’m hard-of-hearing and i love ur music and hope there is another album on the way cuz i would like some more music to memorize how to sign!! i hope that there r more tours soon:D

WOW! I hate this game so much! Eventually you'll see the stupidity, each time you eltainmie a car the camera changes and starts circling your car. That causes you to crash and you can't disable it!Also, you can go very very ridiculously fast! It sucks, you can't see that far so before you know it you will crash!And the drifting is so stupid! It's very common that you will not drift and just brake instead! TRUST ME! THIS GAME SUCKS! GET FAST FIVE OR REAL RACING 2 THEY'RE MUCH BETTER!

Well, for the month of October, Jessica is following along with that whole blog every day on a cetarin topic thing that's going on. I, personally, seem to be too fickle to commit to that sort of project. But her choice of topics has resonated with me big time: 31 Days of Smelling the Roses.
