St Anthony's Hospital in St Pete, FL has a continent ostomy support group every month and thought that I would post the information here.

This would be of interest to anyone with a J-Pouch, Kock Pouch or CIR but all are welcome to attend. (we also have one or two folks that have a urostomy that come out as well!)

This month, Peggy Brockman is scheduled to speak about "Life Changing Benefits of Customized Nutrition.--Say Goodbye to Pouchitis Forever!"

Its also nice to be able to talk with others firsthand about their experiences, and do some "J-pouch networking"...lol. Sometimes patients that are actually IN the hospital for takedown/formation attend...robes, IV poles and all.


When: Wednesday, January 30th from 6-7PM

Where: 1200 7th Ave North, 4th floor rec room @ St. Anthony's Hospital


Dr Shore, Fran, Allison, and a few of Dr Shores nurses also usually show up, so anyone nearby is encouraged to come.

Hope to see ya there!
