I have Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). I was diagnosed at 4 (was youngest ever), had my intestine removed and got a J-Pouch when I was 9. I have now just celebrated 16 years with a J Pouch. I am trying to make my disease more known as it is a genetic disease that does not skip generations. I lived my life like any other person. I never changed activities or foods. I lived every day as it came and never stopped because of having FAP. When I had surgery doctors told me 3 to 6 months of recovery and i was doing everything including swimming a month after my surgery. I have had no complication and I look forward to talking with more people who have J-pouches.

Thank you again and Congrats on 1 year.
