My name's Mike. I'm 40, from Northampton. I have recently had a colostomy, my first bit of surgery. My stoma is called Smiley because the first picture I took looked like a smiley face 😃. Plus, I'm known for having a beaming smile across my chops. I'm fun, happy, and always up for a laugh.

Hello Mike.

Truly artistic!

I hope you are going to enter it for the Turner prize this year as it is way better than some of the prize winners of the past.

Best wishes

Bill

I just wanted to tell all the users of this site that I really love having the opportunity to express my feelings here. I'm positive that many feel the same. I wish that all here come out of the experience you have here will be like mine. Support and understanding from others with issues similar like each other will help us all and give the relief we all crave, well, I'm selfish. I'm here because I need support. And I find enough here to help in the tough times. Thank you. I really mean it.

Very helpful

Mike,

Welcome to the site! The picture is a wonderful expression. It's as hilarious as it is slightly disturbing! But definitely goes with my sense of humor!

Keep up the good work and if you have any questions, feel free to ask. You will find an abundance of support here. Take care!
