All the models had ostomies. Even the new 2011 colondar has one model with an ostomy. I am now 8 years out of the ap resection. I still wish for my old body but I have gotten used to the new normal. Just from what I have read I think you have done a great job getting on with your life. I think once your wound heals and you don't have to do the packing of gauze you will feel alot better. So make it a point to get some good answers from different sources as to how you can help your wound heal.

You had your old body for 32 years before all this changing around, and you can't expect to be in touch with your new body now in less than a year. Too blunt I know, but right or wrong, it is what it is, and I am not here to be America's Next Top Best Friend!Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02803947634609575213noreply@blogger.com
