Alison loves her scar
May 29, 2009Alison is an 18-year-old J-poucher who I ran across recently on YouTube who is just starting a colitis vlog called ToileTalk. Like many others, she suffered with colitis at a young age, had an ileostomy, and now lives with a j-pouch.
She’s kind of silly but has a great attitude in spite of everything that has happened to her. In this video she shows us her scar from the takedown surgery and doesn’t seem bothered by it at all. The first 3 minutes of the video are really all you need to watch. I wanted to show everybody that it is possible to be happy with your body in spite of scars and changes because of surgery.
Keep fighting,
~Dennis
