  • An image styled like a film strip with three distinct photos of people wearing clown-themed makeup looks. Photo 1 (Top): A person with pink hair and white face paint, featuring exaggerated black diamond shapes around the eyes, a black smiling mouth, and a ruffled white collar. They are wearing a party hat and are surrounded by pink balloons. The overall look is a pastel, slightly unsettling birthday clown. Photo 2 (Middle): A person with white and pink-tinged hair, wearing extreme, dark, and scary clown makeup. The look includes sharp, jagged red and black lines extending from the mouth to create a stitched or demonic grin, dramatic eye makeup with sharp points, and dripping red accents. They are wearing a black suit and a red bowtie. Photo 3 (Bottom): A person with dark, textured hair styled up, wearing white and pink face paint with dark pink lips. The makeup includes classic sad clown tears, bold white highlights, and stylized eyebrows. The expression is one of slight sadness or contemplation. The three photos are vertically stacked in a black film strip border, with numbers 29, 30, and 31 visible. To the left of the film strip, the text "Clowns // Creator Edition" is printed in white over a dark, textured background.

Today marks my 12th year recognising World IBD Day Today marks my 12th year recognising World IBD Day whilst living with IBD… but this year, I found myself asking a question I never thought I would.

Do I actually still have IBD?

After 3 surgeries, having everything from the ileum down removed and now living with a stoma, my Ulcerative Colitis is no longer active. There’s nowhere left for the disease to flare in the way it once did… so where does that leave me?

Am I someone who had IBD? Or am I still someone living with it?

In today’s blog post, I wanted to explore that question because IBD is so much more than just a bowel disease. Even without active disease, I still live with the effects it left behind.

A stoma gave me my quality of life back after years of immense pain and failed treatments, but it isn’t a cure. It’s a management route with its own ups and downs.

I’d love to know if anyone else with a stoma has ever questioned where they fit within the IBD community now 💜
