Well a week has flown by since my operation although during them they seemed to drag very slowly.
So far my bag has been named and the changing of bag carried out about six times but with my darling wife kind of holding my hand in support.
So I start week two and look forward to improving a bit.
Hi Chromplated
Thanks for the update.
It does get easier, especially changing the bag. Hope you have a good week
Ann
That sounds good progress Chromeplated. As daunting as a bag may initially seem, it must be a relief from the constant diarrhoea? Hopefully once this horrible weather goes you will be able to get out and about a bit
Take care
