Homage to my wife

This topic is about a heartfelt poem written by someone who shares their experience with the nightly routine of ostomy care. The poem highlights the physical and emotional toll this routine can take, but also shines a light on the incredible support provided by the author's wife. As the author goes through the motions of caring for their stoma, they find themselves reflecting on their wife's quiet dedication to managing household tasks without complaint. This reflection helps the author shift from feeling exhausted to feeling grateful, and they make a promise to themselves to think of their "lovely wife" whenever life feels overwhelming.

Here are some insights and thoughts shared by others:

1. Many people expressed their appreciation for the poem and acknowledged the wife's remarkable support, describing her as "a gem."
2. There was a general consensus that it is important and heartwarming that the author recognizes and values their wife's efforts.
