Hi, my name is blues

Community member Posts: 9 Connected
I have Crohn's Disease, it was first diagnosed 20 years ago. I have other health issues too and I'm in the clinically extremely vulnerable group for Covid, so as I live alone I've been on my own with my cat for most of the year. I speak to friends on the phone and by email every day which is great, but I miss meeting new people, hearing different points of view and new ideas so that's why I've joined.

Hi @blues and welcome to our online community. How are you today? I hope it's been a nice Monday for you.
I was diagnosed with Crohn's in 1998 so we have something in common Although *touch wood* its relatively under control, it does like to play up now and again. I also have 3 cats so let me know if you want to compare cat stories, hehe.
We can guarantee this is a friendly space where people have lots of different views so please get stuck in. Be it in our recent discussions or with the relaxed natter in the virtual coffee lounge, make yourself at home.
Take care and speak soon.Online Community Co-ordinator
