Dear Ostomates,
To all you good people out there, I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and I hope a fantastic New Year.
To all of you starting this journey as an Ostomate, remember that any problems you have now will get better as time heals all wounds.
Regards and let's keep sharing our knowledge, IGGIE
The merriest of Christmases to you, Iggie, and all the friends in this happy place!
May the New Year bring you and us all... less pain for those who suffer, fewer worries for those who are facing them, fewer leaks and bag-burps, and many, many smiles to crack our faces :-)

Hello and welcome to meet an ostomate. The site charges a fee only for Full Membership, you can still interact with members here via the forums and the public chat room with free membership. The site charges a fee since it has expenses ... as do all websites, people have to spend their time to run and maintain the site, buy bandwith, servers, and other things. I am a life member here, it cost me 56$....about the price of 1 cup of coffee a week for a year. I think that is a very small charge for such a big reward. In my opinion this site is the best ostomy-related web site on the net. I hope you will stick around awhile and see for yourself. I do not own or am I in any manner connected to this site except as a member. regards. mmsh
All the best for you and yours, Iggie. I hope that 2024 brings fair winds and following seas. :-)

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and all my new friends on here. Thank you all so very much. I wish I could say more, but there are no words that could explain how grateful I am to you all.

Merry Christmas and best wishes for a good 2025 - and then some!
Iggie,
How do you and yours celebrate the season - Christmas and when the New Year comes?

We spend it trying to keep cool and eating crayfish and prawns. Too bloody hot for turkey. Have a good one, guys. IGGIE
Sounds good - the seafood I mean. Guess the heat is just the norm for you guys, hey.
Best wishes,
Jayne
I'm an East End boy from the UK. I could not think of anything better than a seafood Christmas dinner. I've never liked turkey.
