I would like to put in a word about non- reversal. I have had my iliostomy five years and am so thankful to have put all my bowel problem behind (pardon thepum) . At first I was frantic to have a reversal but have come to appreciate the ease , painless and trouble-free elimination I now enjoy. So to all you who cannot have a reversal, take heart and enjoy life .

Hi
it is so comforting to know that it is not all doom and gloom, I had my op 3 mth ago, and it is a permanent colostomy.....I some times envy those that have/can have reversals but as days go by actually are more comfortable and at ease with Gods plan for me.

Yeah wow, this site helped so much, I mean really who do you know with this infliction? No one, felt so alone and disgusted by myself every turn.
But it ended up being so damn strengthening, I got fucking moving, really only another choice.
That's

I was damaged by a procedure and ended waking with this, I understand all of you.. perhaps you had to have it, I get it.. doesn't matter either way.
Just wanted to share that
