I was struggling to choose a title for this. A friend of mine told me about this program on BBC Radio, and I thought some of us might like it.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0025491

Released on: 20 Nov 2024
Available for over a year
"Sarah Mills' comedy guide to dealing with a fallible and embarrassing body. Since losing part of her bowel, comedian Sarah Mills has used a stoma bag. She might tell you that having a bag attached to her belly to collect her poo has made her unembarrassable - but the truth is she has always been completely shameless. Now, with the assistance of her outrageously candid celebrity guests, she wants to smash the taboos around bodily malfunctions and help us all banish bodily embarrassment for good."

Recorded in her hometown of Stevenage, in this week's episode, "Leaky," Sarah explores bodily spills with comedian and writer Ola Labib.

Hello everyone!!!

It has been almost a year since joining this site. I just wanted to share. I know a lot of people get concerned about meeting someone on here. I'm not a lifer membership and I had someone initiate to take me out. I've been divorced since 2009. He lives in Chicago. I ignored the first time thinking he was joking. I live in Milwaukee. So a month later he sent me a message through this site saying he wanted to meet me. That was in April this year. I must say it was the best thing that could happen to me. We talk almost every day. We have so much in common. He comes up all the time to spend the day or weekend together. It really does make a difference when someone has an ostomy like you. Such understanding and we always have something to talk about. I want to share because sometimes people think it's hard to meet someone or they say this site doesn't work. I'm a testimony that this site does work. We are talking marriage this time next year. I will keep you posted.

Brilliant! I loved it, especially the part about us ostomates being the ultimate 'multitaskers'.

I guess comedians can’t afford to show their insecurities. But many seem to joke their way around touchy subjects. All the best to you!
