...I had my ileostomy way back in 1984. The doctor said then, "Don't
worry, in 6 monthes you'll be used to it, and no one will even notice."
Well, now here we are 23 years later, and I'm still not used to it,
and EVERYBODY notices...
I had tried for a reversal surgery but I had two surgeons
tell me I was not a good candidate for the operation. So, what's a guy
to do....
