Nearly four years without an anus

Crohn's Disease... diagnosed in 1992.

Severely scarred rectum, anus and large intestine resulted in having permanent ileostomy surgery in 2002. Protocolectomy included.

Planning a four-year anniversary sans-anus on May 7th. Will be sure to keep you posted as to how plans for the party roll along. I wonder what to serve?

perhaps sausages.
