It all boils down to the simple fact that it feels good to appreciate. It just points me in a direction that I like to contemplate. I actually said outloud a year ago that I couldn't appreciate my ostomy, it wasn't possilbe. I think I'd be dead from a painful wasting away by now without it. Silly me. I appreciate my ostomy. I love standing up and sitting easily. I can feel my body getting stronger and more lithe again. I like moving freely. I like feeling light and fit. I like feeling bouncing and frisky and an ostomy is no impediment to this. I have quality of living. I have bodily comfort and ease. I've learned discretion with my condition and can walk about feeling comfortable and free. I appreciate my ostomy for giving more life to me. I appreciate it allowing me to raise my children one two and three. I appreciate my ostomy is no impediment to loving grandchildren indeed. And now to invent something that scoops children up and puts then on one's lap since hernia's are a danger for those with ostomy's, but children need to be picked up and put on one's lap regularly..its part of loving them!







I appreciate my ostomy and am interested in life getting even better for me. I appreciate living and feeling interested and happy.
