About
Hello. I am 32 and have been battling stage 3C Ovarian Cancer for 5 years this March. Due to the spreading and nature of this cancer, it has attached to my colon and caused me to have a colostomy. I am allergic to most adhesives which makes finding a device that works and doesn't explode out the side a little more difficult. I've had to have my ostomy revised 2 times in the last year since I got it, due to it retracting and not functioning. So I am overwhelmed, frustrated and exhausted with it most days. Would love me meet others and maybe someday find someone that understands and won't care that I have medical issues.
