Last month, Amber Wallace Ogle of Ostomy Diaries & I got together with Hollister, Inc. (a major ostomy manufacturer) to bring our audiences a discussion on how to lead a fuller life with an ostomy. Our aim was to engage viewers from around the world who may be struggling with self-image, body image, family life and relationships with an ostomy.
And it was a grand success! We reached nearly 1,500 viewers from over 46 countries and from the feedback received, it was a video that helped many.
Here’s to many more conversations like this where we can help ostomates feel less like outcasts and more like the beautiful human beings that we all are! Here’s to shattering the stigma around life-saving ostomy surgery!
