I went on my first 'real' social outing today, and I would say it was successful! I went to see a Bluegrass band, lots of people, talking, and dancing. Since getting my ostomy (March 2020), I had only socialized with family and a few close friends... family game night, coffee dates, and the occasional lunch out. I know for some of y'all, this would not be a big deal... but for me, it was a BIG deal! LOL I left a backpack in the car that had everything needed for a pouch change and a change of clothes just in case. During the break, I went to a nearby gas station to use their restroom (the one at the event didn't have an industrial-size fan LOL). I just might be getting my groove back. Next, I am going to a full-blown dance (singles friends) with a band and lots of people on Saturday.What was your first outing? I would love to hear your stories.
