A guide to coping with life as an ostomate. The trauma associated with surgery to place a stoma is beyond difficult to handle. Particularly, if you, like me, was not expecting it. In this 45 page book, you will learn the ins and outs of how to deal with your new "normal" both in the hospital and at home. Most importantly, you will learn how to deal with the emotional, mental and physical challenges of becoming an ostomate. Depression, hopelessness, anxiety and shame do not have to remain. With support (via this book and resources contain within) time and practice, you can recover from the trauma and regain a normal, healthy life.
