Just thought I would pass on a site that has been very helpful to me and my understandings of various chronic conditions that I have run across while I was coaching and teaching. There are a lot of sites out there that are factual, but boring and long. This site has great information on these everyday chronic conditions that you might not understand and need more info on. It has helped me understand more about what kids are going through who suffer from these different conditions and in return give me a little bit more compasion and understanding for them.
I know that this really might not have the most to do with sports or football, but I have had players in the past that have had to have special needs for their conditions. A good example was having a player with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and not having a clue what it was or what it did. This site is a reference site that really does a good job of explaining these conditions.
Anyway, good luck to everyone.

There is a drop down box on the top left of the page that you pick the condition in.
