Hello fellow ostomates, I am heading into surgery to have my j-pouch removed; wish I had never tried this procedure. It has never worked and now it is infected. Life is good though, I have a positive outlook and it will be better that it's gone.

This site was a true lifeline when I first became a member back in 1997. The support I received during the time of a critical time in my life.was greatly needed. I met so many wonderful people that became like family. And fell in love with a wonderful woman from the UK. Visited here and later had her come to me here in the states.
