I got the great news yesterday that my ostomy reversal surgery is scheduled for March 10th! The doctor said that I should be good as new in about 2 months after the surgery and my scar on my stomach

will fade. I said "That's ok. I'm excited to get my life back. And you know what Evel Knievel says about scars? "Bones heal, pain is temporary, and chicks dig scars!"

I remember counting the days down to when my first ostomy was reversed... It'll go by too slow and then all of a sudden the days fly.

Who needs tattoos when you have scars!?!

My wife is only half-jokingly urging me to have a zipper tattooed down my scar!

Considering they turn us into a human Operation Board, it better look good! ;)

Operation!
