ILEOSTOMY!: How I Lost My Colon and Learned to Love My Stoma

by Bill Wood

The true story of the journey from severe Ulcerative Colitis to a permanent Stoma. After years of seldom controlled UC the author had started discussions about colon removal when his body made the decision for him. After a very frightening night of severe blood loss he could wait not longer. Here Bill takes a light hearted approach to his story of what happened after deciding to have his entire colon removed in favor of a stoma. Graphic enough to understand but not to the point of being gross. It is a story of life and how to come to terms with changes. For anyone considering this surgery, this provides the story of just about the worst case and how it still is better than living with a diseased colon. This is Bill's "no holds barred" account of his journey and how he came through with a new love of life.
