AW Cross

AW Cross is a former scientist and agriculturalist-turned-author and blogger. She was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis in 2009, and since then has run the gamut of IBD from ileostomy to j-pouch before being diagnosed with Crohn's Disease in 2016. Intended to be humorous-but-pragmatic guides, her "Quick and Dirty Tips for Surviving" series was written as a response to her personal experience with her condition and what she felt was a lack of positive and practical day-to-day advice for patients.
