Yes, we had the same surgery. Both had all our colon removed.

Her message said her phone number would be changing and I think she was moving. So hopefully her personal life is just busy and she's doing okay physically.

The surgery was the hardest thing I've ever done but I'm so glad I did. This is the first time I can remember in my life I can eat and go to the bathroom pretty much everyday.

I saw this shirt that had a stick figure with it's arms raised in joy and the caption said, "I pooped today!"

I felt like getting it but don't think too many people would understand tho if I wore it out.
