Seeking Support for Missing Ostomate - A Personal Story

Topic Explanation:
The initial post is about a user who wanted to reach out to another ostomate who was upset about the cancellation of his ileostomy reversal surgery. The user wrote a long note to the individual, hoping to provide support, but couldn't find the person's profile on the site. The user then shared their own experience with having a stoma and the considerations they had about reversal surgery.

Advice and Insights:
- The initial post by the user sharing their own experience and concerns about reversal surgery can be a source of comfort and understanding for others going through similar situations.
- Expressing empathy and understanding towards others' experiences can have a positive impact and provide support.
- Some individuals have found peace and contentment with living with a stoma, considering factors such as feeling good, distrust of doctors, age, and potential health risks associated with reversal surgery.
- Personal experiences and insights from others who have gone through similar situations can be valuable in making decisions about reversal surgery.
- The idea of waiting for new medical innovations or being at peace with the decision to live with a stoma can provide comfort and hope for those facing similar challenges.
