Hi. Have you tried the United Ostomy Associations of America? You can find them at www.ostomy.org. They have local chapters which offer support groups, activities, as well as can provide you with free samples that have been donated to them. It's a place to start if you live in the US. Most states have their own local chapters, but sometimes they're in neighboring states. Here's the link to their local chapter sites: http://www.ostomy.org/supportgroups.shtml . If you're lucky enough to live in FL, you might try the Osto Group who also provides Ostomates with free supplies. Hope this might help you out.
MeetAnOstoMate is a remarkable community of 41,453 members.
“I found real people, real humor, and answers I couldn’t get anywhere else.”
“The support here impressed my husband’s medical team - they plan to recommend it.”
“This community saved me when I thought I was a freak. Now I’m thriving.”
“Thank god for this site - I finally knew what to ask my surgeon.”

New ostomate, we’ve all gone through feeling low and depressed over your ostomy.
This is a pretty open group. Right now, in summer, it’s a low response time—lots of family things going on. If you need something, call out. Someone dealing with your situation will post something sooner or later.
It’s just that time of year.
Take care, and good luck.
