When I was having home care after my ostomy surgery, I remember telling one of the nurses how lucky I feel to have all the support and supplies available to me. She told me a story about what some ostomates in India and other underdeveloped countries have to go through when they get a stoma.

Thank you all for such a wonderful year. I know that holidays can be really hard, especially if you are flaring or exhausted; do your best to find “you time”.
Wishing you the best for 2015!
And a quick reminder that if you drink, don’t drive.

Happy 1st Blogiversary VeganOstomy! GIVEAWAY
One year ago today, I launched the VeganOstomy Blog. I started it with the wish to share my experience of having an ileostomy due to Crohn’s disease while maintaining a vegan lifestyle. I’ve learned so much in the past year and hope that I’ve provided some entertainment and education along the way.
