Have Bag Will Travel – You Tube Videos

There is no shortage of Ostomy related videos on You Tube, but finding ones which are at the same time informative, entertaining and with a professional-edge to them is harder. And Brenda Beecham’s two part You Tube video series, Have Bag Will Travel, ticks all those boxes, and more beside.

Featuring interviews and information discussion, it’s well worth watching if you have a spare 20 minutes. :)

Ostomyland Lifestyle Guide Now Available as a Book

The lifestyle guide pages of Ostomyland has long been the main content of this site. It started life over 13 years ago as my hospital diaries, and once I got back home I keep more entries and started to convert all of them into a Colostomy lifestyle guide.

Today I’m pleased to be able to announce that as well as being available on this site to read for free at any time, you can now also buy a copy of the whole 104 page guide as a printed book. This option saves anyone who is surfing for a friend from having to print all the pages out themselves, and also offers the reader a permanently available source of reference on most things a colostomate may encounter on the road through life with a colostomy.

The guide is available now for £9.99, ships internationally, and is available from lulu.com. To read more, see a preview, and/or to buy a copy of the guide please visit this page:

The All-New “Pouches and Products” Forum

The “Pouches and Products” forum has just launched.
http://www.ostomyland.org/ostomyboardipb/index.php?/forum/174-pouches-and-products/

It’s a new forum which lets you tell the world about the products you currently use, and what you think about them. It’s kind of like a reviews section but without the formality of having to comply to discussing certain criteria in your posts.

Why not start a thread telling us which products you currently use, what you think of them, and why you are using them? Would you change to something else if you could?

Have you come across a product that you are not too keen on? Let us know about it and why. But remember that the companies also browse these forums…. ’nuff said. :P

It is my hope that the forum will help people discover new products to try which might meet their needs. So, if there is something you’d want to know about a product dont forget to include that information in any posts you make!
