Hello! My name is Lori and I live in Connecticut with my husband and dog.
I had a colostomy two years ago to divert and heal a fixture. Unfortuanely, it didn't heal and I ended up having a ileostomy last Oct. when I got colitis, twice from an antibiotic, Amcef. They ended up removing the colostomy, removing my large intestine and replacing them with an ileostomy. I have issues now and then, like once a week with the bag..last night it became detached again! but other than that, dealing with it. I also go to dialysis three days a week, 4 .25 hours each time. I am on the kidney transplant list and waiting..could be 3-4 year wait.
Thank you for letting me join.
Lori
