#IBDSuperHeroes launches 'Your IBD Stories' in celebration of World IBD Day!

I'm sure you've all heard by now that today, May 19th, is World IBD Day - a day for the WHOLE WORLD to raise funds and awareness of IBD and to celebrate the community of strong individuals battling Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis.

Back in #IBDSuperHeroes HQ we've been working really hard to think of ways to raise the profile of Inflammatory Bowel Disease on this very special day. We've arranged dress up days, Twibbons, Thunderclaps, headers and profile pictures and last but by no means least are launching our 'Your IBD Stories' section of the blog!

We will be posting a few of your stories today and then drip feeding the rest at regular intervals. These will also be shared across our social media platforms.
