This year CCFA in Kansas City has more runners with direct connections to Crohn's / Colitis than ever before - so a good year for Kaitlyn to do this. Check out her page (and picture), and the testimony my wife wrote up: http://www.ccteamchallenge.org...sascity/Honorees.htmFunny thing too - we found out that our daughter's hospital-mate and soon-after fellow j-poucher was the CCFA Take Steps walk Honoree this year. It's reconnected the two of them, and is so cool to see them both active in promoting fundraising for CCFA.
And in case anyone with j-pouch kids ever wondered, I found out that j-pouch kids are absolutely qualified for CCFA's free residential camps at various locations throughout the country. I was told any kid who has ever had, or has, Crohn's or Colitis can certainly apply as a camper. Maybe in a couple years - she's going to camp with church for the first time this year and we'll see how it goes.
