It has been a treat for me to be a part of this site and to share, read, and laugh with you all. I do wish we all could live or be closer to one another, but since we are not, this site makes it feel as though we are all neighbors and, in some cases, like family. How cool is that! Wishing you all Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year. Love, Michael :)

This is a remarkable community of 40,901 members.
You will get real advice from fellow ostomates who truly understand you - things you won't find in the books.
And it's not all about ostomy - there is friendship and relationships too.
Privacy is very important - your profile is not visible to the outside world.

After I got my ostomy I found this site and got a lifetime membership. I have had so much help from the core members, things that even the wound care nurses didn't know. If you haven't been through this journey you don't know - only the people that have experienced this first hand truly understand what your going through. The support is enormously helpful getting through this. Afterwards when you start to learn how to deal with this new normal you can begin to help others. ...mtnman.

Here's my Christmas wish... I wish we all had enough spare cash to fly somewhere and all meet and stay for a weekend and hang out. I think that would be so awesome to spend some good, quality time with y'all.
I have really bonded with so many of you and I am so blessed to have friends as wonderful and supportive as y'all... you all know who you are.
I love you.~~~Hannah
