I wrote the novel "Hope" so that people could better understand what living with Colitis was really like. Medical books can be hard to understand. If you know somebody suffering from IBD or were diagnosed yourself, this book might be of interest to you.
Hope
By, Chantal Bellehumeur
Months after being diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis, Sophie Murphy winds up in the hospital stuck to an IV. Starving and in pain, Sophie fights to get better. Once released from St-Gabrielle’s, she has to get her strength back, gain the weight she lost, and deal with her uncured illness. What keeps her positive is knowing that her nine year old son Devon can come back home once the worst part of her problem is over. She knows she will have to live with her illness for the rest of her life, but is desperate to find out her triggers to avoid going through hell again.
As the weeks go by, Sophie finds hope with the help of her friends, family and even strangers as well as a bit of romance. Her life slowly returns to normal, with the risk of another relapse. Meanwhile, the people in her life start having problems and challenges of their own.
