Cutting the Apron Strings
Well, it's official. I spoke with Wendy, my visiting nurse tonight and we both decided I was ready to be on my own until my reversal surgery. Besides ordering a few more supplies, I have pretty much everything I need. We both determined that I will be able to get about the same results with or without her help at this point. In fact, she said she learned some things from me. That was thanks to the help of the friends I have met at the various ostomy websites, and some trial and error. She was very kind and wants me to keep in touch with my progress and call if I have any questions. I thank God that I didn't have to go through this on my own. (medically speaking, I've already ranted and raved about the moral support, etc, etc, etc in previous posts).
20 days until my next surgery, folks. I can do this.

and you don't have to, either. That's the best part.
