So this is my first blog post (on here, anyhow)... I'm not quite sure where to start.
I've got an ileostomy and have had it for just over 4 years. I have a condition called neurofibromatosis which caused nerve issues that led to other issues and eventually a toxic megacolon with perforations. But I'm better now—the picture of health, sort of.
I've been spending the last few years eating as much as possible (not that it does a lot of good... can't seem to gain weight for love or money).
I was in a relationship recently, but it ended badly (partially my own fault. In retrospect, I was pretty terrible at relationship "stuff").
This is probably not quite right for a blog. I'll write a better one tomorrow.
