You were very lucky to know each other, and I'm sure you'll treasure his memory.<BR/><BR/>My Dad had a stoma-bag fitted when he went in for a biopsy and was diagnosed with Cancer. Trying to understand how he coped with this has been hard.<BR/><BR/>I have memories of moments when he was learning to cope with it and not quite managing. And the devastated look on his face.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing your stories, and helping to remove the cloak that is drawn over this situation.Katenoreply@blogger.com
