Happy New Year to one and all,

This April 19th of 2015 will be five years of having my ileostomy. It has been quite the experience, to say the least. And I'm sure it will continue to be an experience for which I will be ready for anything and everything it will bring. I have a positive outlook on having my friend Jr., who I have dubbed my stoma ;). Sure, at times he can be a little noisy, but hey, even if you don't have a stoma, you are going to be noisy. It's all either in front or behind. To all who have and will have a stoma, being either a colostomy, ileostomy, or urostomy, don't let it rule the way you want to live. Sure, it was a shock, but it also saved my life. I would rather live with an ostomy than not live at all. The big guy above has a reason for this, and I'm going to take every advantage of it. I'm going to smell the roses and everything else that life will offer. Life has always been a challenge and will always be; just try to accept whatever it hands you, and if it has lemons, then by George, make lemonade and enjoy. So to finish here, have a Happy and prosperous New Year.

Hello Dear Sir,

Kindly permit me to write you about my ordeal and thus seek your assistance. I am Mrs. Petience Andreichym from Ukraine but presently in the hospital for my operation. I was married to the late Mr. Goodluck Andreichym, who was the ambassador of Ukraine in Ivory Coast. We were posted to Ivory Coast for a 12-year mission, but unfortunately, my late husband passed away without returning back to our country alive. Since I have engaged myself in the work of the Lord in this country, I decided to return to keep the fellowship of the Lord by helping charity organizations, especially the poor.

I have a donation to make which I will need your assistance to carry out for me. I will be 72 years old this coming Feb 14, a widow and the servant of the Lord for the past 38 years in Ivory Coast, Africa. I inherited some money (USD 12.3 million) from my late husband; I want to give it out to orphanages and charity organizations as a vow I made

Wow, really. I guess she/he thinks this scam hasn't happened in a long time; we'd all forget about it. Anyway, Happy New Year to you too, Charleston Guy, and I hope this year brings you lots of smiles. Z
