Today Mrs. B & I are in Curaçao. Hot and humid with scattered cloudy skies. We took a tour of caves this morning.

Time for me to mow down a cheeseburger and hot dog. Then relax by the pool. Mrs. B is out there somewhere fraternizing with dolphins.
Stoma doing good. No troubles with the heat or humidity.
Oh boy, BB, you're livin' it up! I always find that my stoma behaves when I'm on vacation (except the one time it exploded while staying with friends in CA). Your sixth pic reminds me of a print of Burano that a local hospital art program for which I volunteered had in their catalog of prints. It was a popular choice among patients.

I have an update about the rectal stump inflammation I've been dealing with since Christmas. I took suppository medicine for 30 days. First day... instant relief. No bleeding. I was amazed. That was the same all 30 days. Three weeks later, all remained good.
Last week... started bleeding again. Disheartening. So I'm back to square one. I'll visit my most excellent gastroenterologist soon after I return home.
I hope you're not having too much discomfort on your vacation. I remember dealing with those suppositories. 😕

Cave pics minus humans are lovely, TY.

Get that fixed up as soon as you get home, BB. But enjoy your trip for now.

Fortunately, I completed the medicine about a week before I left. The suppository medicine didn't cause me any discomfort or trouble. It worked really well. But I'm back to bleeding again. It's easy to manage... with a pad. I'm not sure what my gastroenterologist will recommend next. But I'm not gonna do Barbie butt surgery. So..... I guess I'll be stocking up on pads. 😉
