Almost 33 years with an ileostomy and I thought I had heard it all. Wrong! In a recent posting on a FB ostomy page, a lady from Brazil, using Google Translator to translate from her native Portuguese into English, said that she was happy to find the page because she too was "ileostomized." What a great word! I told her I'm stealing it

I like being able to be specific like that  - ileostomized, colostomized, urostomized.  While not an exact generic version, (that would be stomized), I've used stomacized, for lack of a better already existing word, to describe myself or a family as in "when I got home from the hospital my family became stomacized".

Uh-oh. I misspoke. Just reread a post I wrote a short while ago and realized that while in this topic I posted that I've used "stomacized," in the previous topic, what I said was "stomatized" with a "t" in the middle, not a "c." Can't decide now which I like better. Any opinions are welcome.

Ms Mooza - Fiddle de dee yourself. Guess since we can no longer "make wind," that makes us "Gone with the Wind".

Ms Mooza -

I was looking at how evil those little emoticons look - the ones sticking out their tongues. Please tell me if I'm wrong - for the first time, I took a good look at the other ones. Those guys dressed in blue look like they're actually mooning me. Those dirty little emoticons.
Biggest thrill I've had in quite a while. Thanks.
