Hey everyone. I'm post-op since late Jan. Doing good, I think. I posted a bit back that depression was setting in, but I'm doing a lot better now, I think. Life without the bag has been better. I'm just now, lately, been pooping like I guess normal people do. Scared still to be without a restroom nearby always. I'm not sure if anybody has followed my journey, but I've had my reversal once before and I got mega sick 3 months later. I'm one month in this time and all is cool so far. Power of positive thinking, right? It's hard to remember my journey before when I got so sick cause I've been on so many drugs and whatnot. Sigh......... I just wanted to say hi to everyone who's here, healthy, suffering, or otherwise and let you know I'm doing OK and I hope you are too. Guess I just wanted to still be a part of this community even though I'm out of the bag. I do have insight about what it's all about. My prayers are out to all like myself who have to deal with this terrible life-saving situation we're all in. Love
