the bbc finally issued a formal apology and acknowledged the lack of evidence for those claims. im honestly just relieved they set the record straight because nobody deserves to be blamed for their own illness. thanks for sticking with this until they actually listened.

ive been reading through your messages all morning and its honestly heartbreaking to hear how many people feel blamed for their diagnosis because of that broadcast. im currently putting together a formal letter to the bbc executives to demand they show us the evidence they were missing. thanks for sticking with me while we get this sorted.

seeing how many people are backing this makes me feel way less alone in how frustrating that broadcast was. its clear we arent going to just sit back and let them blame us for being sick.

Ridiculous reporting by the bbc. They have no idea how hard it is living with this disease and these headlines just make life worse for us. Glad someone is speaking up.
Honestly so tired of people thinking I caused my own colitis by eating a burger once in a while. The media needs to stop spreading this absolute rubbish without checking the facts first.
Thanks Louise, I really appreciate you saying so :) And on the upside, I have just enabled comments on my blog now! I didn't realise I hadn't got them set up yet. So thanks for that too! Xx

Hi lisa, I couldn't comment on your blog, but I wanted to let you know that I thought it was an incredibly well written and comprehensive overview of IBD, really enjoyed reading it and whole heartedly agree with your view points
