Hi There Im known as Spiritman Or Just Plain Bernie..I had my Operation last September having an abscess removal from the large intestine and a partial bowel removal also..and a Colostomy/Stoma enplacement..so I now have a new friend named Skippy who lives in my pouch just like the real Aussie Kangaroo does? It takes a while to adjust to this new and wonderful creature, but to get use to it is a must for all of us pouch bearers wether we like it or not, at first the protrusion seems to want to be the boss like getting in the way when bending over, or allowing strange aroma's into the air when it suits itself to do so, or on a more serious note to allow certain fluids to leak out at the wrong time and place!
Yes there will be a time when you will have to make allowances for this, but believe me you will adjust in time to all its little wonders and tricks it like's to perform for you, so be aware and not afraid of your ostomy protrusion because yours truly has been there and done it, and so have many who  are comrades in arms.. Or should that read Pouches??? If you would wish to email me you are very welcome to do so..  Thats why we are all here for, to make friends just like I have and be to be reassured that that life can be as nomal as it was before your operation........I do wish you well.........Bernie   ( Spiritman )

Shona (weeyin) CD  
I was diagnosed in 1988 when I was 12. I feel as though this illness took away what should have been  the ' best days of my life'. I am single and do not have children. I have tried to be positive as that is the only way to deal with this illness and have not let it interfere with my life, well as much as I can. I had 2 small bowel resections in 1994. I recently had 2 infusions of remicade, but had a severe reaction to the second one. Now it is just a case of 'wait and see' before I receive any more treatment. If anyone wants to talk, feel free to contact me.

crohns colitis  
iv had crohns and colitis for about 8 years now and have been though an op (rh hemicoloctomy) at the end of sept. on all kinds of drugs andim still in remission and thats after my op! been in the highlands i had to go to my local hospital, total waste of time!! the so called expert kept telling me i was stressed out! what a joke like, went back to my doctors and said that i wanted to go elsewhere, so i went to Aberdeen Royal. i was there for a week getting all sorts of tests(to which my local hospital had done) and they found that i had a narrowing of my colon and that i had to have emergency op. so all in all its better to get a second opinion if you are having no luck with your docs. if you want to get in touch plez do neilfisk@hotmail.com
