Little Hannah overhears her pregnant mom telling friends that she can't feed the new baby. Worried, Hannah looks for the perfect solution. Mommy Can't Feed The Baby is the ideal resource for chronically ill mothers on immune-supressing drugs like azathioprine (imran) who have been told by their specialist that they can't breastfeed the baby.
Simone trained as a radiation therapist at Auckland Hospital. She has a passion for writing good resources for chronically ill mothers. She describes it this way, "Professionally, I knew a lot about chronic illness from years working in radiotherapy. However, when I developed Crohn's disease, I gained the lived experience. Going on drugs like prednisone and azathioprine opened my eyes to the resources that were needed." Simone was diagnosed with Crohn's disease in 1998. She is married to Nick, and they live with their family in Auckland, New Zealand.
