Welcome to Brilliant Little Butterfly

We share stories of health experiences and lessons learned, living with chronic disease (specifically IBD-ulcerative colitis), life as a j-poucher, and health advocacy & resources. We also sprinkle some parenting things along the way. We believe in sharing information and tips to try and help others navigate similar situations and know they aren’t alone.

We are very passionate about life, specifically health and family. The name “Brilliant Little Butterfly” was chosen because of what it represents. Butterflies are delicately built, beautifully colored, and have enduring strength for their long migration travels.  They also symbolize new life or rebirth.
