HAppy New Year to one and all,
This April 19th of 2015 will be five years of having my ileostomy. It has been quite the experience to say the least. And I'm sure it will continue to be an experience to which I will be ready for any and everything it will bring. I have a postive outlook on having my firend Jr. who I have dubbed my stoma;). Sure at times he can be a little noisy, but hey even if you don't have a stoma you are going to be noisy. It's all either in front or behind. To all who have and will have a stoma being either a colostomy,ileostomy or urostomy don't let it rule the way you want live. Sure it was a shock, but it also saved my life. Would rahter live with an ostomy rather than not living at all. The big guy above has a reason for this and I'm going to take every advantage of it. I'm going to smell the Roses and everything else that life will offer. Life has always been a challnege and will always be, just try to accept whatever it hands you, and if it has lemons then by george make lemonade and enjoy. So to finish here, have a Happy and prosperous New Year.
