Life without a colon

 Hi. Welcome to my blog. Thank you to all who have read my 1st blog. Please follow or leave a comment! My spirits have been uplifted just to share my story. I have been contemplating for so long to do this, and here I am today sharing my second blog. As I mentioned I was not prepared  enough for the days to come. I wanted so badly for my surgery to be a success and to continue with my with life. My recovery period was difficult, I had to literally look at myself in the mirror and say to myself "You are not going to give up".  My daughter was my little helper, she would ask me to wait for her when she got back from school so that she could help me with changing my colostomy bag. I knew then that as much as I needed her, she needed me. After my second operation the j pouch restoration, that's when the new normal started.  I accepted the new normal, firstly because I was in denial and secondly because I wanted my life back.

When the path of your season is altered

So often in life we set ourselves for great goals and expectations. When we do not achieve those goals, we feel like failures, sad and mostly shattered.

I wanted to share my story about the ramifications of a total colectomy and ileal pouch anal Anastomosis reconstruction. I hope this can help someone to acknowledge that they are not alone in this situation. This is the first time I'm doing a post and I wanted to share something everyday, but today I'm going to be sharing with you on how this all started. I want to be very honest and speak in detail about things others may find difficult to talk about. But this will be done in follow up blogs, I wouldn't want to scare the readers.  No one really prepares you for the challenges that follow in the years to come. I must admit that everyone's experiences are not the same, many have had success stories and many haven't. I'm one of them!  In 2005 I started having low grade fevers, chills, flu like symptoms and self medicated. I'm a nursing sister and like many in the professi...
