Welcome to part two of my “Mastering Life with an Ostomy” series!

I was invited by the Reno Ostomy Association to speak to their group and share some of my tips for people living with an ostomy and also caregivers.

Back in June, I was invited to be on a panel for Shield HealthCare to discuss ostomy life. But I also had a chance to sit with one of my heroes for an interview.

In this video, we explore audience questions about ostomy reversal surgery, intimacy after surgery, and more!
