Hopefully going home with my NJ next week to gain weight for my redoing of my stoma, and that will stop the pain after eating. Five weeks in the hospital is too much; now I need to be home where I can relax, and I think I will put weight on faster in my own house. I will keep you all updated. Thank you for your support and comments. xxxx❤️💓

I take part in these forums almost every day. They and the people that contribute to them have made all the difference in my having the courage to live a normal life with an ileostomy. The people here are marvelous and come from all walks of life and from all over the world. Hearing what others have lived through has really helped me put my own experience in perspective. I highly recommend all ostomates and caretakers of ostomates to come join us.
