She spent three months tied to the toile, going every 15 minutes. She couldn’t even go for a walk. When she came to us she’d had her surgery and was so pleased with her ostomy. She said she could walk forever now and could bag her own shit.

To be honest an ostomy is more attractive than an asshole but it puts your shit out in front. It sucks but it is better than the alternative.
