This is a fascinating read about the history of the Stoma how it was created .  http://www.stomaatje.com/history.html Wonderful reading !!!!!!!!!!! Come a long way and hope to see more inventions for us!! gezzzzz--What they went through in the 1950's........ 2014 - 3 strangulations of colon, Ulcerative colitis, removal of colon, illiostomcy named woooh Nellie.. Really cool stuff. Those early appliances looks like medieval torture devices 😲 Just your friendly neighborhood ostomate. Like it said, patients and even the doctors said death would be better than those early jobbers.. Talk about depression huh? And here we are still trying our best foot to put forward. But with the help here, at least I/we don't feel alone.. 2014 - 3 strangulations of colon, Ulcerative colitis, removal of colon, illiostomcy named woooh Nellie.. I am greatful to be living in these times . I would have died back then . Those were barbaric times . http://www.shieldhealthcare.com/community/ostomylife/2016/03/29/famous-people-with-ostomies/ Napoleons in here too! IF only VO had been around just think the guy may not of caused half the bother, Must look te see if hitler or stalin had one ileostomy 31st August 1994 for Crohns If only I could have read this article BEFORE my surgeon spent 13 1/2 hours trying to straightenout my intestinal tract. Then, I wouldn't be so resentful to my situation. Manure Happens!Â
