Happy Anniversary to me and my little Raspberry. Pic no.2 was taken exactly a year ago today (apparently at my request even though I don’t remember), a few hours before I went into surgery. I didn’t know I had #coloncancer at the time. I just knew I was gonna have an #ostomybag and I didn’t want to. Pic no.1 is today - 1 year, 1 (other) emergency surgery, and 1 course of chemo later. . I was planning on saying more but all I really have to say right now is that I’m happy. Post-cancer life is harder than I imagined sure - there’s a lot of trauma to process on top of the mental illness that was already there - but at least I get a post-cancer life thanks to this little #ileostomy right here. So thanks Raspberry. You’ve made life so much better and I honestly can’t remember why I was ever afraid of you. I couldn’t be here without you 💖💖💖 #ostomylife #stomagirl #iwas26 #nevertooyoung #cancersurvivors #cancersucks
