Ostomy Product Information
December 28, 2008Hey everybody, I found a couple interesting ostomy products while surfing the web that you might be interested in. I haven’t tried these products myself so I don’t know how good they are, but maybe someday I’ll wear my ostomy bags again and test out some different products, after my wound heals of course.
My Heart Ties This little heart-shaped pouch cover is intended for women and intimacy. These hearts come in a variety of colors and are trimmed with lace and all sorts of other feminine details. At $45 a pop, these little hearts might be spendy, but so are ostomy supplies in general. I know many people stop dating when they get their ileostomy, but for those in some kind of relationship it might be worth looking in to.
Ostomy Armor This is a rough and tumble product for active people. Invented by a soldier, ostomy armor is a protective shield that completely covers that stoma and pouch, allowing for a total range of movement. For people who are running around and banging their stoma on hard surfaces, this product might be for you. The website isn’t the most professional looking but apparently this product is starting to make waves in the ostomy world.
That’s all for now. If I find any other unique ostomy products out there I’ll let you know.
This week I have three new videos for you about my time in the hospital following my takedown surgery. I brought my camera into the room with me to record my thoughts and condition as I was recovering so those of you waiting for your takedown surgery know what to expect. They should be entertaining and informative, as always.
Keep fighting,
~Dennis
