I was wondering if anyone has ever attended the Ostomy Conference and if so was it worth taking the time to attend?  I noticed there is one in St. Louis in September.  Thanks.  Penguins7

Hi Penguins7,  Yes, I attended the 2013 conference in Jacksonville, Florida.  It was a great time both educationally and socially.  The conference offered variety of classes about ostomy living as well as a stoma clinic.  What was nice about the clinic, you could meet with a wound care nurse and have an evaluation of your stoma and skin.  There were networking/socializing events organized too such as dancing, partying and lots of laughing.  I would recommend this conference to ostomates.  I will be there again this year (if all goes as planned) talking/marketing my new book - Stanley and Me make three.  Take care - LH.
