Colon [U.C. Awareness Book]
This book describes Ulcerative Colitis, a chronic disease of the colon which has directly affected me. This quality-of-life altering condition affects many individuals and their families and friends. There is no definitively known cause or cure for the disease. Debilitating flares can come suddenly and at irregular intervals. Fear and stress can often exacerbate symptoms and make it difficult to cope with the pain and distress.
Although the unknowns of the illness are no emotional comfort, being educated about the UC and taking a humorous approach are ways to manage well-being. This book uses both informative information and witty remarks to inform and console.
Structured like a children’s book, this thick-paged book contains dictionary-style definitions of key terms regarding Ulcerative Colitis with matching illustrations. Throughout the book, the typographic colon glyph (:) appears in a fleshy pink color in the same position in each page spread. The book spine is wrapped in an I.V. tube, referencing the infusion of medicine or electrolytes given to patients who receive treatment in the hospital for the condition.
