I'm living fearlessly this September. Will you support me?
I’m taking on the Live Fearless Challenge this September to raise awareness and funds for the almost 180,000 Australians living with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.
I was diagnosed with Crohns Disease 18 months ago at age 16. I was really unwell for about 8 months and luckily my coach who had Crohns disease said to speak to my doctor for 2 specific tests and my results were off the charts!!
I have since found a group of great specialists most importantly my Gastroenterologist and Im doing great, feeling well and in clinical remission.
IBD is one of the most misunderstood chronic health conditions. Yet people living with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are ‘frequent flyers’ of the hospital system. It strips away income, disrupts education, work, relationships and travel, and can have a significant impact on both physical and mental health.
That’s why I’m getting active this September and aiming to complete 150km. Every kilometre is for the thousands of people living with IBD who face this in silence.
Consider supporting me as I take on the LFC! Your donation will help fund research, patient support, education and advocacy - because no one should have to manage this disease on their own.
You are a true warrior! Love you ❤️
