Can someone with Crohns live a normal life?

by Noora
(Kingdom Of Bahrain)

Since the age of 9 my brother had suffered from many infections and cramps, diarrehea, bloody stools. We went to several doctors and none seemed to know what was going on. For the past 2 years he was being treated in Great Ormand Street Hospital in London, unfortunately recent results have shows that he's getting worse and the medications showed no improvement in his case, so last week after having a colonoscopy in our country he was diagnosed with crohns. Today he is 13. He lives a normal life and is on humira and other different medications. He is very patient and we always try our best as a family to avoid what's bad for him and provide him with foods which are good for him, he is trying his best to improve. My question is will he be able to live a normal life through out his life? And will crohns be cured? We are from the middle east and we are in desperate help to find the best doctor\hospital in the US for such case after the shocking results from Great Ormand Street hospital which is well known for being one of the worlds best hospitals. Any suggestions??

Crohns does not have a cure as yet. I live with it everyday. I work as a chef and although i have good days n bad i live an active normal life. Lits of herbs chinese remedies n actupunctor have helped me stay as healthy as possible.
