Introduction

As you may have noticed from some of the dates on various articles I have chosen to re-print, I have been collecting ostomy information and hints for several years. I realize some have duplicate subjects, however, a slightly different version of a subject, or an added hint or two, may be just the one that will work for you....

AS USUAL....ALWAY CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR or ET NURSE BEFORE USING ANYTHING NEW, OR MAKING SIGNIFICANT CHANGES...!!

And, above all...KEEP YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR, you would be surprised how much it help through the sometimes rough situations...trust me!

This is only my second attempt at compiling others works, so please excuse all bloopers...any questions, corrections, additions etc. will be gratefully accepted, so please contact me at:
