Why are you involved with #IBDSuperHeroes?
I am passionate about making a difference! I joined the IBD community online a few years ago when looking for some support. Since then I have made some life long friends and been able to talk about my experience living with a chronic illness, surgery and a JPouch.
I met my side kick Poison Ivy, through working together on a previous project. We joined forces and launched #IBDSuperHeroes. Our aim is to raise money to fund medical research throughout the UK to find a cure for Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Our team is pretty awesome! I expect amazing things to come...
Pets:
Cats! Obviously...

A little about your life:
I'm a little bit crazy and you will usually find me bouncing around with a smile on my face.
I do however struggle with anxiety and I worry FAR to much. I annoy myself!
I sing, write a blog when I can sit for long enough to engage my brain.
Bit of a technology geek
I have been desperate to become a mum for many years and needed IVF treatment to conceive. This was due to having blocked fallopian tubes as a result of bowel surgery. I am so happy to be expecting a little boy in January 2017!
