The Colonless Chronicles: June 2012
http://thecolonlesschronicles.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 25, 2012. Summer with an Ostomy. My stoma is my secret; until summer. I feel sticky. I feel itchy. I feel like ripping my pouch off of my belly and letting my suffocating skin breathe! In the summer less is more and having a cloth cover plastic pouch glued to my stomach radiating heat back into my body drives me crazy! So I do what comes natural to me, I jump in! The pool, lake, river, even a sprinkler feels like sweet relief from the blaze under my pouch. I am, for the moment content. Well,...

The Colonless Chronicles: January 2013
http://thecolonlesschronicles.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 13, 2013. The Other Side of the Bed Rail. Last week was a crazy week. I am so thankful that as of right now she is doing very well and was so excited to tell me that for the first time in years she is taking deep refreshing breathes and to make it even better, without her oxygen! Then from across the room I saw Grandpa. Sitting, watching, waiting, hoping. We finally found a camping cot that fit into small hospital rooms. No more sleeping on the floor! Links to this post. I lost my colon a...

The Colonless Chronicles: The Not-So-Teeny Bathing Suit
http://thecolonlesschronicles.blogspot.com/2012/07/the-not-so-teeny-bathing-suit.html
Thursday, July 19, 2012. The Not-So-Teeny Bathing Suit. I had the skinny and the suit, but I also had 4 kids watching me. I started looking for cool looking one pieces or tankini's. I found a cute tankini from Lands End. Black with little white dots. It was my first transition to the not so skimpy and I noticed right away that I hate the feel of wet bathing suit hanging on my body. (picture the green tankini on this page but back with tiny white polka dots! So I started to search more for a. When one sui...

The Colonless Chronicles: Up and Running~
http://thecolonlesschronicles.blogspot.com/2012/07/up-and-running.html
Tuesday, July 17, 2012. So I went and set up The Colonless Chronicles on facebook and I couldn't have picked a less busier time to do it! During the last week of July me and the kids go to the Fowlerville 4-H Fair. I don't mean just. To the fair, I mean we spend weeks getting the cows and calves ready, pack up the camper and. We stay in the camper all week while fair is going on. This is our second year with our 4-H group and although it is tons of fun and learning, it is also tons of hot sweaty work!

The Colonless Chronicles: Waiting
http://thecolonlesschronicles.blogspot.com/2012/06/waiting.html
Tuesday, June 12, 2012. So as I am sitting here in this cold waiting room, waiting, I am trying not to get more and more anxious and I am trying to figure out why I get so upset at routine appointments. It's my spleen. It's the not knowing! The possibilities of what it could be! The lesions fill the whole spleen. Why! I don't want to do another biopsy. The first one hurt worse then the lung biopsy. And you know what? I simply just don't want to do it again. I am working on this. Summer with an Ostomy.

The Colonless Chronicles: September 2012
http://thecolonlesschronicles.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 21, 2012. Through The Eyes of My Son. To start off, this topic gives me a lot of anxiety. It happened five years ago, my brother was born. He started a new light into my world but were there is light a shadow casts. It was weeks later that I discovered that my mom had ulcerative colitis. After that many events went fast, my mom was at the hospital, my grandma moved in and the fact was my mom was very sick. When I first read what Colin, 13, had put together I was speechless. Not only...

The Colonless Chronicles: April 2010
http://thecolonlesschronicles.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 20, 2010. Just call me Sarah, I am to young for a Mrs. It has been around 7 months ( I think) that I have spoken to my surgeon in Cleveland and he pulled out the "hello, Mrs." His hands have been in places I don't want to know so I think we can be more personal then Mrs! And wondering if I was thinking of going to 'the bag'. Nice! Just want the pain to stop in this darn pouch. I wonder what it would be like to not feel pain in my butt every day! Links to this post.

The Colonless Chronicles: May 2012
http://thecolonlesschronicles.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 13, 2012. I removed my j-pouch and received my permanent ileostomy. My life quickly began to, well, be my life again! Field trips, grocery shopping, growing my small 'hobby farm'. This blog will be a place where I journal my life. As it was, as I wish it to be and the reality of what is.now. I would love for you to read MY journey through what was some of the best and worst of times in my life. How I handle life with a big family, chickens, honey bee's, a cow and lots of hope. Oh, just to let...
