Re: [UK Ostomy Support ] Hi - 6 wks post-op & going strong =o)

Dear Vanessa
 
Beautifully put! I much enjoyed reading it and it rang a number of bells. Although my main problem is a spinal cord injury I can see that I've had (and still having) quite similar reactions. My bladder was removed for cancer and having a urostomy makes living with SCI a little bit easier. I've just had a clear scan at 4 years that is of course 'good news' but it's enjoying the 'new life' that's important - the 'old life' is history and best treated as such! As they say 'Move on' .....
 
Best wishes

Peter
