IBD Community Advocate Amber ElderAmber was previously an advocate on InflammatoryBowelDisease.net.

Amber became a ninja in 2011 when she began her battle with ulcerative colitis. In 2013, her colon declared an all out war against her. She began documenting the adventures of the Colitis Ninja and her battle with Toxic Megacolon and his ilk in March of 2014. After a year-long flare in April of 2014, Amber destroyed her evil, rebellious colon and has been sporting a happy, healthy j-pouch since July of 2014. She has made it her personal mission to support others living with IBD, raise awareness and continue battling for those who are silently fighting a vicious disease that no one knows about.
