Hello everyone,

My name is Dorota and I live in West Yorkshire.

I have been living with urostomy and colostomy since November last year due to recurrence of cervical cancer.

I've been wondering if there is anyone like me having 2 stomas (in my case they're both permanent).

Regards,

Dorota xx

Around the artificial virgina, you may still have yours, mine will be removed and recovery time, I'm 61.

I will have the same outcome as yourself, my surgery will be November some time. How are you coping now? Did you have to change your diet?

Hi Helenteresa

You are welcome to ask any questions in the group. Sometimes people may not still come to the group so you may not get a reply. I noticed that you directed a question before to dorota77 but I haven’t seen her make any posts for 3 years so I’m not sure you would hear from her.

It is possible to use the private message facility, but I personally have that set for friends only to be able to message me. I have no issues about speaking frankly in the group however, so please feel free to ask anything!
