I went back to work last Thursday. I had been on benefits for eight months and thankfully work agreed to bring me back in for light duty for eight weeks.
The point of this post is to share with other newbie j-pouchers my experience this past week. Things have drastically improved for me this week, the night before last I slept through the night without having to get up for a BM. Last night, was no such luck. I am starting to find some energy I haven't had in years. I believe this is completely because I have left the four walls of my prison and ventured back into the populace. There may be a psychological element that holds us back from healing our physical bodies because of certain mental blockades.
I am no Psychiatrist and you can disregard this post but I am feeling pretty good! Now if I can get this butt burn to go away.
So have courage and go enjoy the outdoors!
