Story

Hello there! If you are reading these lines it means you are ready to contribute and make the dream of all the people affected by Crohn's and Colitis a tiny bit closer. Don't worry it's not an invisible portable toilet! Hahaha just kidding :) You might not know it but when you get to be diagnosed with these diseases the first two things you hear are: "we don't know where it is coming from" and "there is no cure"...well, sounds awful, right? Now, it is already for grown ups, can you imagine for children? This is the reason why this year I am asking your help...since I became a mummy, I cannot imagine my son going through all the pain I have suffered since I have been diagnosed 6 years ago. Let's be honest, we are approaching the year 2021 and we still know so little about this condition. So let's do something about it! I started with baking a nice carrot cake (not in looking, sorry, I am a rubbish Baker! Lol) with a purple twist for my colleagues at work! Unfortunately or fortunately ;) you won't be able to have a slice in exchange of your donation but what you will have, is that satisfaction when one day you will turn on the news and hear "a cure for Crohn's and Colitis has been finally found!" In that moment you will feel proud because, even if in a little dose, you will have done your part. If this is not enough then think that I will be so grateful to you, not only for me...but for our future generations!
