I’m having surgery in January 2014 to give me a permanent stoma (ileostomy). I’m going to be blogging about it to raise awareness of Ulcerative Colitis and other inflammatory bowel diseases, and how they affect those who have them.
In doing so, I’m hoping to raise money for Crohns & Colitis UK and the ia – the Ileostomy & internal pouch support group. To read the posts, check out the Stoma Story category on my blog.
