LMFAO@scotz and db! I can always count on a smile when I come here!

((((maddy)))) and ((((bare4you)))) TY guys!



Just wanted to add something that I thought of after I posted and left for work the other day. Steph mentioned that Crohn's seemed quite common in New Foundland for some strange reason. I've been reading everything I can get my hands on about it and I recall reading stuff about ethnic and geographical studies. Seems that this disease is more common in developed countries than in underdeveloped ones. It is more often found in urban areas than in rural ones. And even more surprising, it likes the northern climate rather than the southern climate. That's not to say that it doesn't occur in the areas of opposition...just that it is much more prevalent in the ones mentioned.

I know there must be a clue in there ^^^ for researchers trying to find a cause and cure. Wonder what that is?
