Prep’s Network Engineer’s Website Wins Award

Posted May 27th, 2015

A big congratulations to our Network Engineer, Frank Garufi, Jr. For the third year in a row his website, The Crohn’s Colitis Effect, has been named in the Best Crohn’s Disease Blog by Healthline.com.

Crohn’s Disease is a form of inflammatory bowel disease that affects 3.2 out of 1,000 people in North America and Europe and does not currently have a cure. Symptoms can include abdominal pain, fever, weight loss, tiredness, skin rashes, arthritis, and inflammation of the eye, among others. As Frank documents on his blog, diagnosis can be a long and difficult process.  For more information on the disease, visit the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America.
