I had a check-up yesterday. Celebrated my 5 year anniversary of no colon. It has been wonderful!!! Anyone who wonders if this decision is the right one needs to talk to me. After 22 years of UC I am healthier than ever. Just keep looking forward.

Happy colonless anniversary!
Thank you so much for sharing and reassuring me that things will get better! I hope to be as lucky as you after my take-down.
I am coming up on 17 years ! and still happy about my decision, which was a very scary one at the time.
Happy anniversary!
I just had my 20 year anniversary earlier this year. But 5 is a nice milestone for sure!
