I have double ostomies. I started pole a year ago, and I've just started aerial. For 16 years, I did nothing. I'm due for my 35th operation in October, but I'm not allowing it to stop me anymore. Thank you to those who believe in me every day, even though I don't. I'm so lucky to have a supportive partner who also has an ileostomy. Be bold, believe, and fly 💖
You're an inspiration to us all, Miss fudgeakins, and your core strength must be out of this world. Well done! 🤸♀️|✨

For those of you still looking for love after your ostomy... don't give up! One day, when you least expect it, there will be a message in your inbox... always remember that when you're not looking, life has a brilliant way of surprising you with someone in your life you have so much in common with, and either you make a great new friend or you will find the person you were always looking for! I, for one, thank God I found this website... I was in a low place when I first started, and now I've never been happier! ~Traci~
Absolutely marvelous to see you being you!

You are really in shape and have great muscle tone in your stomach to be able to do all those poses. Wow, and with that many surgeries too. Good for you! Don't let anything stop you from doing what you want to do.
Keep going on your courageous journey of joy as you practice your new art form. You are lovely and an amazing person. May continued joy come your way. 💐Gaia
I'm late to the party, but the fact that you're keeping your core strong is a blessing. Abdominal surgery damages the muscles, so keeping yours toned is amazing.
