Miranda Loves Laughing with her Crohnies
Maybe it's because she's a New Yorker. Or, maybe it's because she's
an experienced counselor and patient advocate for clients of the CCFA
(Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America). Whatever the reason, Miranda
takes her work with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis seriously.

Miranda is a music lover, nature buff, and friendly New Yorker. Did we mention the
quirky laugh? Her fire-red hair? Let's put it this way: Miranda is often life of
the party—make that the life of the café or the sidewalk, too.
She's a person who tells stories so well, that others gather around just to
hear the punch line. Miranda has also been a CD patient for over two decades.
So, she has a lot of experience she's gained living with the disease that she
shares with her own clients.
And what about when Miranda's feeling down? Well, she calls one of her many
Crohnies. "Crohnies" is the nickname that Miranda has given to her friends who have
Crohn's disease. So, when Miranda's down, she gets together with some Crohnies
to hang out and laugh.
And Miranda loves to laugh.
