Hey guys,

In an attempt to stave off extreme boredom, I got my hubby to drive to Walmart to pick up a few cases of Boost. I waited by the car since dragging this fricking bag o poop is just too awkward, while Freddy went into the store. Me, being me, I just had to have a smoke (I quit, but temptation got the better of me, but only 5 a day). So, with the window down, I got out of he car, and threw the drainage bag on the front set, leaving only the hose visable. Well, the second I light up, this adorable 2ish year old was walking past and stopped dead in his tracks in the middle of the parking lot. He was spellbound by the hose coming out of me, he wouldn't budge. With eyes as big as saucers, he looks at me and asks "mister, why is there a garden hose in your pants?" well, this innocent question went right to my dirty mind, I couldn't help it, I started laughing (how come the hot models never ask me about the hose in my pants? Lol!!). Didn't know what to say, so I lifted my shirt and told him the truth, thinking most kids would appreciate that. Well, not this one, he burst into tears, screaming and crying, running to his mommy saying I was weird and was a robot!! Don't think I've ever laughed so hard in years, I need that! The mom was so embarrassed, I said dont worry about it. Just had to share that, was really funny!

Cheers!

Sorry but it is open season to anyone who asks....you did great...poor kid is going to have something to say at Show & Tell and no one is going to believe him!!!!
Keep going out and please 'tie off' that bag and tube and give yourself some freedom...you do not need to be walking around with the bag, just the tube that can be plugged and taped so that you can hide 'that tube in your pants'!

oh my gosh!! Thank you for sharing thisSmiler I have three kiddos, and they were pretty freaked out when I first came home from the hospital with my illeostomy! Now, they know all about it...more kids should know about this kind of stuff!! I just noticed that you had toxic megacolon...i did too! I was very close to death, and even after I came out of surgery, the docs weren't sure if i would make it! Cheers to you and your survivalSmiler
