My favourite brother is in the hospital, newly diagnosed with Crones (sp) disease. He starts remicade tomorrow. He has had two attacks in two weeks. They found almost a foot of diseased small intestine.
thanks in advance for your good thoughts for us.

Thank you. He has such a positive attitude. He is a fighter, and very pragmatic. In 1991 he fell 18 feet getting two compression fractures in his lumbar vertebra and braking his femur. His wife, my dear SIL has life changing respiratory illness, near fatal allergies and asthma. They have survived and thrived through infidelity and I consider them fiscal role models. Bad things happen to good people, and I know they can weather this together, and with the support of our large family. The unknown is daunting.
Thank you, Annette

Hugs and prayers. Remicade is a miracle drug for Crohn's and autoimmune arthritis.

I have a friend who has been on remicade for going on three years now. She has done very well on it. Good luck to your brother. I hope they can get in remission quickly.
