About
I am a middle aged female, nurse anesthetist who has had multiple surgeries and now an ileostomy for 6 years. I am pretty healthy right now and am trying to get back into running. I work part time and then some, have kids at home, am in a book club and volunteer. There are still times when I want to cry, but those happen less and less now. I have a very strong loving husband, and could not have made it this far without him.

Just looking to exchange ideas and experiences with people similar to me.
