Here is the presentation I gave during the Power of You Ostomy Education Seminar in Regina, Saskatchewan.

This video is part one of two, and the second will be a Q&A session with the audience who attended the event.

I'm joined by both Sheryl Walker (a stoma nurse) and Dr. Ryan Suri (General Surgeon) as we explore some these topics and more:

My story with IBD.
Coming to terms with my surgery.
What life was like following my surgery.
How I began advocating for others.
Steps to becoming your own advocate.
Questions that any ostomy patient should be asking their healthcare professional before and after surgery.
