To all my fellow ostomates. Upon entering this holiday season, I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. We all have been through so much in our lives, some more than others. But I know one thing is true: we are all blessed to still be here. So I ask us all to count our blessings because no matter how hard we may have had it or still have it, there is always someone out there who has it ten times worse. But if we are now doing better, then reach out to those who are still having a hard time. Each day we place our feet on the floor, give thanks. Life is too short to do anything else. As I say, if life sends you a lemon, then make lemonade. So to all, a happy holiday and a very happy and healthy New Year. BROOKLYN

I just wanted to take the time to wish everyone a good holiday. I especially would like to thank this website and the folks that run it and keep it going. This site has been a life saver for me and I am so thankful I found it. I hope everyone has a great Christmas and Hanukka and if you don't claim either holiday, I hope you have a nice day. See you all next year!

Right back at you, Brooklyn. You are very true when you say there are people out there worse than we are. I do thank God every day for my life. So, you and everyone on this page, Merry Christmas and have a blessed New Year.
