Saluting and sending love to the ostomy warriors and the great ostomates all over the world. Every journey with a stoma isn’t the same, but everybody with an ostomy story deserves respect, and not to feel any shame.

That's the stoma supplies refreshed for the next couple of months or so. Bags, elastic tape strips, dry wipes, wet wipes, adhesive remover, disposal bags and some hand sanitiser. #BowelCancer #Stoma #Ostomy

Is it really a big deal, a one-night stand with a stranger… maybe not? Make sure you feel safe and share only what you’re comfortable with. Your ostomy may not be their primary focus, and they may not even notice it at all. Any thoughts? #ostomy #stoma #colostomy #ileostomy

Happy one month of existing, Stoma #2! It's excellent; much better than Stoma #1. To celebrate, I'm showing off some of my cute ostomy stuff! Here's my bag changing station, bc who says my supplies have to look medical? And a lovely bag cover by the talented @oddtypeofdragon.bsky.social. #NayeHealth

My precious pal @SillyLilSeal recently got an ostomy bag. When he made a new 'sona of a giraffe w/a "rumenectomy", I HAD to draw some silly 'stoma #endo shenanigans! Ft. his partner & my bestie @CuriumSkylark as the prey/smol~

If ur a pred w/a stoma, congrats on being cool! :3

An article will mention "people with stoma can't go to the theatre because they need to change their ostomy bags too often," and I'll think "That seems like a problem you could easily fix with different capacities..." and then I remember we as a culture refuse to admit disability or illness happens.

Today is Ostomy Awareness Day.

I live with a permanent ileostomy due to Crohn’s Disease.

That has meant multiple surgeries, hospital admissions, and complications.

But I live a better life with a stoma than the constant pain I was in.

Stomas save lives.

Planned #ostomy? Ask before surgery: Why do I need it? Alternatives, risks and benefits given my health history? How'll it be performed? Best anesthesia? Preparation and diet? Recovery/home care/WOCN? Success rate? Cost/insurance? More suggestions?

Many manufacturers offer free #ostomy product samples. Try different options to find what works best for your stoma and lifestyle. If possible, test adhesives on another area of skin first for signs of sensitivity.

Advice from people who’ve been there boosts confidence. Get in touch with others who have ostomies. Join a local support group or an online community like MeetAnOstoMate (world’s largest). Ask the questions you’re too shy to ask your doctor and get real-life tips. #ostomy #stoma

A well-fitting pouch system may last 3–7 days. Empty the pouch when it is about 1/3 full. Frequent leaks, skin irritation, pain or difficulty with pouch care are reasons to seek advice from a WOC nurse. Your experience?
