I just wanted to say I hope each and every one of you has a wonderful day!
I hope you are pain-free (as much as you can be) and worry-free (ditto) and smiling when you think about how much I and so many others really do care about YOU.

Love and hugs and hope you have a great day too, my dear!

Feeling good today -- I'm off to get some Olympic mittens... The Winter Olympic Torch will be carried down the main road in our neighborhood next Tuesday, and I'll be there waving with my red mitts!

Wish I had the guts (

) to get an extra mitten, put it over my bag, and let it hang over my jeans. Now that would be the Olympic spirit!

What Members Are Saying

Posted by: Marjatta

This group has been my go-to during my loneliest hours whenever I've had a "bag blowout" at 3am and there was no one else in the world to talk to.

Because it's a global community, there's always someone here to lend an ear, provide advice, and just hold my hand if that's all I need.

Sure, there's also a lot of camaraderie, fun topics, and laughs, but the main reason I come here is for the total acceptance I get from the members. No one else on the planet could possibly "get" what I'm going through, not even my loving husband or supportive family.

The "Meet an Ostomate" forum is definitely a one-of-a-kind family, which I am very proud to belong to.
