My wee little pal, Squeaky, turned 2 today. What an ordeal this last 2 years has been!!  Between my ongoing open wound, my work situation, my daddy dying, and now Covid, I start to wonder if there will ever be a light at the end of the tunnel. 

As rough as this time has been, I must say it would have been so much worse without the support of my husband, my family, and my other (Vegan Ostomy) family. Thank you all for all the advice and help over the last year I’ve been part of this forum. 

Eric, thank you again for all you do for all of us. You are changing lives every day and that is such a great thing!!

And to the ostomates I now call friends, I can’t imagine not knowing you, yet without Squeaky, I would never have met you guys.

Happy Birthday Squeaky! 🥳🎂   Liza, I love seeing  a newbie move forward &  start helping other newbies here at VO as well. The confidence and tips they share is nice to read as they too move forward on their journey as an Ostomate.

I hope you continue  helping others here. You have a fair bit of different experiences to help others with, as they start their own journeys!  Keep on healing as it happens in so many different ways  we never realized before joining as a member.

All the Best my Friend!  


Linda

Squeaky can be heard loud and clear over here on the other side of the pond.

So maybe squeaky is a baritone :lol: 

The community is all the richer from the presence of you both

Liza, thank you so much for spreading positivity during what many of us might consider the worst year in recent memory. 

Two years flew by! I'm approaching 7 in August and I can't even believe it! Here's to more adventures and smiles :-)

My daddy had a beautiful singing voice and he was a baritone, so maybe it runs in the family. 😂
