Hi,
I admire your positive outlook and congratulate you for the attitude. As you know your child is diagnosed to have crohns disease. This condition is inflammatory disease in intestine. She requires a longterm medication as advised by gastroenterologist / pediatrician. Once she tolerates feeds ,you can give any home made food which is not too spicy. Try to give lot of liquids food. Keep under continues follow up because disease can flare up any time. Strictly follow the medication regime suggested to keep the disease under control.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
Wishing your child good health.
