MPB,

I'm sorry to read about your friend, it sounds like he did indeed lead an unusual life, but a 'full' one. You were very lucky to know each other, and I'm sure you'll treasure his memory.

My Dad had a stoma-bag fitted when he went in for a biopsy and was diagnosed with Cancer. Trying to understand how he coped with this has been hard.

I have memories of moments when he was learning to cope with it and not quite managing. And the devastated look on his face.

Thanks for sharing your stories, and helping to remove the cloak that is drawn over this situation.

Hello,

Thanks for sharing. My friend just had his rectum removed due to Colon cancer. I'm trying to get an idea what he's goanna be facing shortly.

Always wonderful to find an open, frank, honest description. Pretty rare at times these days.

Thanks again. Good Luck,
Brent

Hello My Pink Button!

Your blog is becoming an addiction for me! My spouse has an ostomy due to ulcerative colitis at the age of 25. (Side note: He was diagnosed with primary sclerosing cholangitis at the start of this year. He is 33.) Anywho, would you tell me what ostomy supplies you currently use? My husband never talks about his ostomy - never - but I know that his bags sometimes malfunction and can be painful. I wonder if there are newer bags (1 piece) he is not aware of that may work better? Secondly, you write very well! Quite impressive entries. Have you ever considered writing anything more extensive? a book? Many thanks ~Melanie
