WOW...haven't been on here since 2009 before my second ostomy reversal.
But here I am again, I will be getting surgery in June for an ostomy bag again but this time permanent. I didn't really have a choice. It was either this or antibiotics with leakage. But I have been with leakage for a year and a half now and I dislike it. Antibiotics every month sometimes twice a month. So you see no real good choices. But this time my husband passed 3yrs ago and he was so kind to help me with the preparation. Well am not looking for a new man as I loved and miss him very much, we're married 45 yrs going on 46 when he passed. But I was on this website 15 yrs ago and it sure helped me back then.
