I went thru all the hell in 2011. Diverticulitis, surgerys, tests, incessant pain, picc lines, home I-V'S Home care, Ostomy bag's, back to work with tha bag, (my co-workers called me "Poopie-Pouch") A successful reversal the next year changed my outlook. I was even used to the lifestyle change. But remember my thoughts are with all of you. The silent disabled group without a legal disability. Oh boy do I understand............Just to let someone know....I will NEVER forget what all of you are going through. We are a special group that only WE understand. Jay
