About 5 years ago, I had stage 3B cervical cancer. It was too late for any female surgeries to be done, so I did the chemo and radiation. About a year after the treatment, my body decided to fall apart. First, I had the colostomy, and then 6 months later, I had my urostomy done. About 4 months after the surgeries, I was going to an ostomy support group. It helped me a great deal to get a handle on all the emotions of dealing with 2 surgeries and going through cancer. My questions are: Is there anyone else on here who has 2 ostomies? How did you get through it? And if single, how do you go about telling them about all of this? Thank you in advance for the input, and sorry for any spelling errors.
