Hi Rachel! I'm in Manchester. I've just seen your profile - I think we're in pretty much the same boat!

I want to thank everyone for their suggestions, messages, and tips! So many have helped! We are learning as we go, learning the ins and outs of this bag. I have ordered special tape that does not irritate my skin and am now using Domeboro powder before putting on a new bag. My boyfriend says that my skin is so much less red!

Saw an ostomy nurse today; she said my boyfriend is doing everything right. One of my issues is that I am really thin, and my skin is really crinkly due to the surgery. We shall see how this bag goes.

This site is a real blessing. Everyone here is so awesome!

Kim

I'm not far from Manchester. I live in Wigan and go to university in Manchester and get treatment for Crohn's at MRI.

I'm in the chatroom most evenings if anybody wants to talk. I'm looking to meet local people.

Hi Jon, I have not been on in ages. How are you? I didn't make the York walk...would you believe it? The car wouldn't start, then the day after, I took ill again.... It took me until now to start feeling a bit better. How is Mr. Dickdastardly? Have you spoken to him lately, and how did the walk go? I hope you raised lots of money. I was lucky; my friends still paid up even though I didn't actually get to do it.

Hi Jon, I have been thinking about maybe raising some money for NACC again, and what do you think about getting together to do something? Maybe you could get Dickdastardly to join us

A few of my friends from over here have said they'll help; the trouble is I'm not sure what to do. Any ideas? Walking? Baking? Perhaps a get-together and a pub quiz? I'm free most days/evenings; let me know.

Hi Jon... you've not replied to my other suggestions, but I'm hoping you'll be up for this. I've arranged for a quiz night near me on Thursday, 14th November... charging a fiver per team, all proceeds to NACC... what do you think? I live near Cockermouth... do you think Dastardly might join you if you join us???? Let me know and I'll give you the details of the venue xx

Hi Jon... Did the quiz night and raised £70, so not bad for a night's work, lol.... Pity you and Dastardly couldn't come... Gonna try and sort another one after Christmas... Will let you know details
