My name is Terri Jennings, I am 51 going on 52 the 19th of this month....HAHAHAHA   I have only had my colostomy for about 2 1/2 yrs.   I used to be Sec/Treas. of a Bowling League for about 13 yrs.   But not since 2001 my sister passed away at 44 yrs. old,   & my mother just passed away July 27, 2005......It has really been hard now,  but i am trying......I am a housewife.....I have also been wondering how to get on here to talk to people with colostomies in a chat room or something.......This is my 1st time on here....but Thank You               Terri

Gentlepeople,

     My name is Roy Crawford and my picture was on the cover of the
ostomy magazine several years ago.  In it I was climbing at Otter
Cliffs, Acadia National Park, Maine.  Glad to find out about this
group and, for anyone who thinks their lives are too restricted now, I
am 53, have had my colostomy for over 15 years, and am still climbing.

           Cheers, R.
