Hi, 

Don't worry all will be ok. I'm Saint James now in Leeds. Had my reversal stoma surgery after a year time. 

Diagnosed with colorectal bowel cancer back Oct 2021. It's a battle and we have to fight. 

Thank you, Karen. I am awaiting surgery for my rectal cancer on August 3rd. (Should have had it on June 22nd but it was cancelled with 2 hours notice which was very tough emotionally and mentally. Chemo is pending.

Hello Qais,

Thank you for your message. I have rectal cancer too. Good to hear your stoma has been reversed - you must be happy with that?

Yes after living with a stoma bag for 12 months now I feel free again.
