this is something I was born with or at least it was affecting me by the time i was 3-6 years of age. I am almost 40 now and I still have no idea what causes crohn's. I know it an autoimmune thing (and yes I know what that means) but what cause it to happen? why does my body hate it self so much it tries to kill it self?? lol at least that's what it feels like to me most of the time. I'm also concerned that my son may develop it as well but he is 14 now without any systems so far. Can some please help me understand what causes it? But please don't use huges words that I would spend most of the time looking up to find out what they mean and not understanding why this happens to me...
