NO ONE KNOWS BETTER the significance of good health than the people on this website. Nothing makes more evident the joys of feeling healthy than having experienced the various devastating maladies that resulted in ostomies. Perhaps – like those mask and vaccine avoiders now hospitalized with Covid – a few of us learned this lesson a bit late. But good health habits are still good, even if it took us awhile to catch on. Occasionally, I will confess, I can lose my grip on the necessities of diet management. “The only way to keep your health,” said Mark Twain, “is to eat what you don’t want, drink what you don’t like, and do what you’d rather not.” I’m still working hard to convince myself that breakfast need not be followed by dessert. I’m at a loss to understand how I could have quit smoking cold turkey, never to go back to it, yet I can’t bring myself to stop snacking. I’m eating pretzels as I type this post! Better than ice cream, I guess. That was yesterday.
