I sent holiday greetings yesterday but haven't seen it posted -- perhaps because I put it under social issues. Let me try once again.
I have just reached my 1-year anniversary of colostomy op. I so much appreciated all the helpful advice, the laughs, the forum chats during my first few months. I feel badly that I haven't been here to help others along for a long while. But I found myself so addicted to this site that I would spend late hours on the general forum or replying to posts and that it was not conducive to my insomnia issues. So I stopped logging on but I continue to read your posts and I continue to care for you and all your concerns, issues, and laughs. I hope to come back for more soon.
I wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
