Hi Peter,
Ostomy Day is the same date here in the states!!! When has that ever happened?
Why Join MeetAnOstoMate?

But, it's not all about ostomy. We talk about everything.
Many come here for advice, others find lasting friendships, and some have even found love.

Yes, Canada tries to keep the same dates as the USA.
World Ostomy Day is every 3 years and we both keep the first Saturday in October as the date.

Ostomy surgery is stressful both for the patient and the caregiver, and creates a major life change for both people in a relationship.

that reminds me of my dad when he would celebrate his bday every leap year.
Sure don't sound fair to me. It should be every year! But it is cool that we celebrate it around the same month~
