A year and a half ago, I had an ileostomy done and became a widow at about the same time. I never thought that I'd meet a man willing to be with an ostomate. Boy, was I wrong!
I met the greatest man a month and a half ago while I was fishing. That's fishing for fish, hehe, not a man. We spent the day fishing side by side. He was a widower, and we became friends. I think I met my soul mate... I am 62, and this man makes me feel so loved and like a kid again. Meeting the right person is just so wonderful...
I wanted to share this with the group to give others hope. Never give up; you just never know where you'll meet the best partner of your life.
