Hello, I had parastomal hernia surgery last September with my stoma relocated to the right side (colostomy) with full mesh. Now the R side has herniated (distal colon)  Has anyone else had this experience with Hernias ?  Looking at surgery again… ugggh! 
thanks!

Well that doesn't sound like fun. I wish I could help. I have a hernia but haven't had it repaired. I sure hope you have better luck the 2nd time around.

Hello everyone!!!

It has been almost a year since joining this site. I just wanted to share. I know a lot of people get concerned about meeting someone on here. I'm not a lifer membership and I had someone initiate to take me out. I've been divorced since 2009. He lives in Chicago. I ignored the first time thinking he was joking. I live in Milwaukee. So a month later he sent me a message through this site saying he wanted to meet me. That was in April this year. I must say it was the best thing that could happen to me. We talk almost every day. We have so much in common. He comes up all the time to spend the day or weekend together. It really does make a difference when someone has an ostomy like you. Such understanding and we always have something to talk about. I want to share because sometimes people think it's hard to meet someone or they say this site doesn't work. I'm a testimony that this site does work. We are talking marriage this time next year. I will keep you posted.
