Greetings fellow ostimates, in a reply to a message I had sent to Bob, he tried to answer by pasting in Just For Laughs, and so I copied and will try to paste it here, Ed
*******************************************
That was a long time ago now. Since then, they have found two more cancers and treated them with 6 months of radiation and 25 radiation treatments so that my last PET scan revealed no detectable cancer at all. As far as the location is concerned, my belt goes directly across the stoma if placed in the normal position, so I try to wear it above the stoma, allowing it all to be inside my pants, but my belt normally slips down to under the stoma, thereby blocking off most of my bag, making it very easy to over-fill and cause many problems. When I can, I wear my trousers below the stoma and allow my bag to hang out, free of all restrictions, but this embarrasses some people. I am back in the Philippines now for a 6-week holiday to celebrate the good news. I even canceled my funeral insurance as I will not need it for a long time. Please pass this along to whoever you can, as it was deleted from Just for Laughs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfV8eHsfexU Thank you for your message, Bob
Get well soon; we need your jokes, Ed
