  • A large, brightly coloured beauty advent calendar display with multiple drawers in pink, green, red, and orange graphics spelling out “LOVE,” “MERRY,” and “JOY.” The calendar is open in several places, revealing various skincare and beauty products of differing shapes and sizes—tubes, bottles, jars, sprays. The products include creams, serums, oils, masks, lip glosses, and lotions, in hues of white, orange, purple, blue, and gold. The calendar is styled in tiers so the outer boxes form a backdrop, and many of the items are placed in front and on top of the drawers.

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After 3 surgeries, having everything from the ileum down removed and now living with a stoma, my Ulcerative Colitis is no longer active.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 💜
