First time's the charm...

This topic is about someone who has been living with an ileostomy for over four years. This was necessary due to complications from neurofibromatosis, which led to a serious condition called toxic megacolon. Although they are generally healthy now, they face challenges like difficulty gaining weight despite eating a lot. They also recently went through a tough breakup and recognize they have some personal growth to do in relationships. They plan to share more about their journey soon.
