Hello everybody. I had my ileostomy, due to colon cancer, in April. I've named
my stoma
Stomie. Anybody remember the old TV show Dobie Gillis? It had a silly theme song
about
him, which I've re-edited to honor my new constant companion, Stomie. If you
remember
the melody, here's the lyrics:

Stomie, wants a little cutie,
Stomie, wants a little beauty,
Stomie wants a bag to call its own
Any size, any style, any crap, any bile, does it hold your whole dinner at all?

Oh Stomie, wants a bag who's dreamy,
Stomie, wants a bag who's creamy,
Stomie, wants a bag to call its own.
Is it short, is it tall, is it dark, is it small, does it wear any kinda
Hollister at all?
No matter, it's yours and yours alone.

Cause Stomie just wants a BAG it can call its own!
