Hi everyone,my name is Juliet,i'm a newbie here so just finding my way around this site.I don't have full membership.but i can reply to messages,and i'm looking forward to making some good friends.I am due to undergo a Urostomy,as i have had many operations and all failed as i have Fowlers Syndrome(Nerve damage).I'm a bit nervous about the operation,and to how the bag will feel,look etc,and how i will look.

Hi Juliet and welcome - hope you like the site. Feel free to ask anything in the forum - no question is 'silly'!
Take care and good luck with your surgery,
Rach xx

Juliet,
Congrats on your impending surgery! I pray you do well and heal quickly. You will have a new found sense of freedom after the surgery. The bag will enable you to get out of the house and live again! You must have a positive attitude and dont worry about how it looks or how it will feel. You will have a body image issue for awhile(or I did) then you jump up one day, put on your regular clothes and dust yourself off and live. Smell the flowers and enjoy life! We learn to cope and being on this site with all these friends, you will have something I did not have and that was a support system! Good luck and let us know how you are as you recuperate'
Karen
