Celebrate Ostomy Awareness and World Ostomy Day October 6, 2012

Celebration of Ostomy Awareness and World Ostomy Day will both share the same day this year in October.  To commemorate this event, the United Ostomy Associations of America has made this poster and help mobilize people to spread the word! 

Ostomy surgery is a serious and life saving surgery that gives people a second chance in life.  Conditions like colorectal cancer, ulcerative colitis, trauma and others can result in this procedure leaving the person with a colostomy, ileostomy, or urostomy bag.  It's important to remember the impressive medical advances that lends us this option so life doesn't end early for hundreds of thousands of people in the United States alone!  Organize with the UOAA or your local ostomy chapter to celebrate this day!
Connect with the World Ostomy Day celebration on Facebook!
