Question:

"Slap your stomach in mock disgust, and say "I should have eaten something before going out tonight."

Response:

I went to a dear friend’s funeral not so long ago. I had not had my stoma too long and was pretty nervous of how it would behave. I decided to sit at the back of the church so I could be very inconspicuous. Sadly the stoma had different ideas. Just as all went quiet in the church it decided to let it’s presence be known, very loudly. The three ladies in the seats in front of me immediately turned round in unison to look straight at me with a look of absolute disgust. Fortunately, the two friends I had gone to the church with just burst out laughing relieving my embarrassment a little. Although I was embarrassed at the time I feel sure that my deceased friend would have died laughing! Have fun,farts and all! sharon

After my surgery for colon and rectal cancer a little over a year ago, I went back to playing golf as soon as possible.  I had a few occasions when I would cut loose in the middle of someone’s backswing, or while standing over my own put.  Only one of my friends knew about the fact that I had surgery and was undergoing chemo.  One day I just announced to them after our round what the deal was, and all is fine now.  I just pardon my "noisemaker" every once in a while now and everyone gets a bit of a chuckle about it.
