I was wondering if any UK Urostomists received the summer edition of the Urostomy magazine. I could not believe it when it dropped through my letterbox. I had been at the Glasgow Dansac roadshow a few months ago in Glasgow. The roadshow is doing the rounds of the UK and is well worth a visit. The main feature of the roadshow is a play entitled "Still Me Waving," which takes a look at living with a stoma.
Anyway, I was gobsmacked because I had my picture taken at the roadshow, and the picture ended up on the front cover of the magazine. I still cannot believe it.
