This week we spoke to Adam Finkelstein! Adam was diagnosed with UC when he was just 2 years old. We talk to him about what it was like growing up with UC and dealing with it as a child. We spoke about how his experiences with the medical system prompted his interest in writing a children's book for other kids with IBD called "Up and Adam: A Patient's Experience on Winning with IBD." Also how it sparked his interest in becoming a physician and especially a surgeon. Finally we talked about Adam's experience as a Camp Oasis counselor, how he was able to share his book with all of the kids this summer, and what their reactions were and the conversations it started. Adam was a joy and we think he'll make an extremely empathetic doctor some day soon!
