I am so glad to hear that I am not the only one who talks to my stoma. I named it " Little Peter Poopalot". I especially tell it to behave when it is acting up. I tried to have mine reversed and ended up on life support for 12 days. After that, I decided having a stoma was not so bad after all. Tropicald

My bag is called Boris after a British politician who can be a bit of a clown . My reasoning is that that he is big and squashy and prone to spout "pooh" at times, but I wouldn't be without him. Anyone from England will know exactly who I am talking about.
