It’s that time of year again: a little self-reflection and bragging about the accomplishments of the last year. UCVlog has now been operating for 3 years, and we continue to get better and better every year thanks to all of your wonderful comments and suggestions!
This year we had over 50 new videos, 11 new video translations into Hebrew and German, a hugely successful ostomy supply drive, our first contest, and more!
And to brag just a little more (and then I’ll be done; I promise), our 280+ videos have been watched over 805,000 times! Watched by you, that is, not us.
Some other great news for you, the patient, is that we are no longer the only game in town. When we started UCVlog there weren’t really that many IBD/ostomy/cancer/colon disease videos online (at least, not that many good videos). Slowly but surely, there are getting to be more and more confident and competent vloggers, especially those with ostomies. Instead of listening to only a couple experiences with disease (and our experiences have been rather depressing at times), there are now so many more perspectives, which hopefully helps you make better decisions about your treatment.
For a look back, here are some of the memorable posts from last year:
- Nadia faces temporary ostomy surgery (later turns out to be permanent)
We have lots more great things planned for our fourth year! Thank you for your love and support over the years!
