Yes it was very nice to stumble upon this community, so glad to find an online group of Ostomates!

Thanks for the welcome.

And I don´t speak Afrikaans but I can understand it somewhat as it is related to Dutch. I did understand the question :)

Welcome to the forums, Windigo!

I hope that you've been recovering well after your recent surgery.

Hello all,

I have an Ileostomy since 14-03-2018 and have been ill with Crohns disease since 2003. I have followed Veganostomy for a while before getting my stoma and I was very grateful for the information I found on here, really helped me to properly prepare so I thought I´d become a member of the community and help others too who are going through this.

I am a 30 year old woman from the Netherlands, work as a social media manager for a vegan charity and am a happy ostomate. I am really glad I did it, it has already improved my life a lot compared to what it was before surgery!

Any questions are always welcome.
