IBD in the news this week

Hello everyone, how are you all doing today? As it is Sunday that means it's time for another in the news this week. If you didn't read last Sunday's blog post you won't know that every week I am going to try and share links to news article's that are about IBD or article's that feature people with IBD. Now that I have explained everything lets get on to this week's in the news. 


The first article that I have to share with you is on Crohn's suffer Zoe Renshaw who is going to be taking part in the 2014 London Marathon.
