Grand Rounds Presentation on EE

Little is known of Asher's disease, Eosinophilic Esophagitis. One of the goals of this blog is to help other families whose children suffer from this disease. Another one of the goals is to help you, dear readers, understand it too.

Here is an amazing presentation given by Asher's doctor at Cincinnati Children's Hospital.

Four noteworthy items:
  1. The presentation is 54 minutes long, so budget your time accordingly,
  2. you get to see pictures of what it looks like inside the esophagus. You even get to see what it looks like under the microscope.
  3. The talk is geared towards a medical audience so for us non-medical folk, some of it may be difficult to understand, and
  4. you can see what Asher's doctor looks like. It's totally cool watching him speak.
This link was shared by one of the fellow mums of an EE child. I'm quite thankful to her for sharing the link.
