C3Life: Ostomy community website
June 18, 2009This site’s been around for awhile, but maybe you haven’t heard of it: C3Life. The C’s stand for your “Ostomy Community Connection Center.” This community outreach service, sponsored by Hollister, is one of the most comprehensive ostomy support sites I’ve found yet.
The website features a plethora of useful and well-written articles about healthy living, travel, sports, work, and relationships. The site also features success stories from others, information on finding the right ostomy product, and news relevant to the ostomy community.
This is one site you will want to bookmark and come back to again and again. For new ostomates it will let you know that you are not alone in this way of life, and there are plenty of resources to support you.
Keep fighting,
~Dennis
