I got my port yesterday and I am also in pain.... More today than yesterday so I appreciate you sharing your experience so i know its somewhat normal for some of us. Praying a speedy recovery and healing for you, me, and all cancer patients in Jesus Name Amen 🙏🙏🙏
I didn’t realize you would have to have more chemo after your surgery. I pray for healing, peace, and comfort for you. You are such a sweetheart and a strong woman. I wish you were past all of this.
When my mother was alive, she was such an inspiration to me...watching me and being with me through all my surgeries and trials. She gave me this book titled, "This too shall pass" Now that she is gone from my life I continue to remember her comforting words as I have been through so many more trials. My heart is with you sweet Vanessa. You will make it through these trials and soon this too will pass. You are so loved 💕💕💕🐾🐾💋💗😘
If you ever have signs of an infection, or food poisoning or you feel sick your first thought needs to be that port. Ports can get infected and any symptoms of unwellness need medical attention asap. You can beat this. ❤️ You have many people caring for you and we are with you in spirit to help you get through this.
Your puppy is adorable 🐶 you are such a trooper, the way you accept operations concerning your cancer. You’re such an inspiration to all the people, especially those who are going thru cancer. I wish you the very best in your journey, you’re amazing! 🥰🌺♥️👍🌹
Vanessa you are such an inspiration to all whom watching you. Knowing that u are a strong beautiful woman. It help me to know that we are not alone in our tribulations in life.. My prayers for a speedy recovery. God is with u at all times.🥰 Stay strong and beautiful. You got this😘 God bless
Hello Vanessa, Yes your going to be fine I had the same thing done. You will be sore for a little while or a couple of days but afterwards you'll be fine 🙂 but still just be careful and don't carry nothing heavy or vacuum 😉 my husband had to do all of the vacuuming. Believe me take every rest that you can you will need it ok beautiful woman. Sending you and your family prayers 🙏 He's Got This cause he has the whole world in his hands 😇just still strong and Positive. God bless us all and be safe ❤
I had a ileostomy bag but I don’t remember what worked because I had it less than a year. I tried different ones. There is a “ Stoma City” group on Facebook (helped me so much). You have to first join “ColonTown and then they will put you in the “sub groups”. They have a great chemo group too. Prayers for you my beautiful CRC Warrior sister. I continue to pray for you and your family.💐💐💙💙
You got this beautiful ! My identical twin brother went through this a few years ago , try not to stress about the nausea, my brother didn’t experience any of that so I guess everyone is different, he also didn’t lose his hair , we are 100% Italian and we have that dark thick hair , I think it thinned a little but he didn’t, but most importantly he got thru it and so do many others and u will too !!! Sending 💖 and 🙏🏻 to You and your Family !!! ps. tell your husband he’s a lucky guy !
I am praying for you. My daughter is going through the exact same thing. She was just diagnosed and you twos situation are so much alike, she is 28 and just got her port put in this past week. Stay in prayer and never let your faith waiver. I’ll be checking on you ♥️
I used Hollister two piece. I put a stoma ring around my stoma before applying the two-piece. It worked fine most of the time. I occasionally had leaks at night and irritation on the skin around my stoma, but nothing too bad. So I did not bother to try other brands. A stoma guard might help if your car seatbelt keeps rubbing your stoma. I had my stoma reversed this March, seven months after the surgery😀. So things will get better. Hang in there! You are doing great!
You’re so strong, praying and cheering you on!! That this too shall pass. May God give you and your hubby and kiddos the strength you need to get through these trying times. HUGS from California 💕🙏🏻💕🙏🏻 I’m so happy you have your puppy to put a smile on your face 🐾🐾
You are very courageous blogging whilst going through such intense happenings. You give a great insight to the journey you are experiencing. Love your wee doggy. Best wishes from London. Chin up
Vanessa, I see how strong you are and how you keep loving and moving forward. I pray for you and you inspire me. Please God, touch this child of yours and heal her and we will all be blessed for it because we will know that you hear our prayers. Like my husband used to say, God bless you God. Love, Carly💙
Great video. I’m glad to see your experience I get my port soon and I’m praying for winning grace you are a strong woman positive vibes for sure 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Good to see your face Vanessa, I'm still here caring about you. I have not been feeling good spiritually and emotionally so I haven't stopped to watch many peoples videos and I heard this little spirit telling me to pick myself out of the dark place that I was sitting in and stop and check on a beautiful person that deserves to be payed attention to. Teddy is cute and I'm so glad you have your children and family to help you out. I pray you are in all the hands of the Lord you need for the best recovery.
@@VanessaLPZ1 thank you for responding to me, I didn't expect that. If I were to ever burden you with the problems I have it would be like Jesus telling you, you can handle his problems. The things I have to deal with can only be resolved by Christs return. But, you just saying anything kind acknowledging me makes a difference with how my scales weigh today. Thank you for extending your kindness and beauty. ❤️ Christie
I had a temporary ostomy and I liked the two piece system the best. Also I liked the convetec that fits around your stoma so you don’t have to cut it. It just molds around your stoma. Also expect leaks and inconsistency for a month or so. In my experience my body got used to it after a month or so. I only had one nurse that told me how difficult the beginning is so I think it helps to know. Looks like your doing great!
Teddy is so cute he can easily put a smile on. Your face. Happy to see your up and about. How are you feeling from the surgery you had just before this one ? We keep praying that chemo goes well
You are such a strong and courageous young woman. I am praying for you each day that God will give you the strength to kick cancer’s butt! You are a true rock star!💫✨
Sending tons of loving positivity and healing prayers to you. Teddy is too darn cute and I am sure a fantastic distraction from all of life's seriousness. Hugs from Long Beach.
I have a temporary ileostomy and I use the two piece sensura mio (maxi) bags. They work really good for me. I was using the hollister bags but I didn’t like the soft fabric material.. so I changed to the sensura mio bags, the material feels better quality and I get 3 days use of them. They provide free samples as well! Give them a try 🙂
Hi, I have an ileostomy I use coloplast sensura mio 2 piece. They have mini have too. I find 2 piece easy for getting the baseplate on and I can see atoms and make sure she is sealed in and secure before putting the bag on. I don't have leaks at all and just put a fresh bag on everyday and change baseplate every few days. Bags have the best material too xx
You literally inspire me so much. You are such a beautiful person inside and out. You are so strong and that is such a beautiful thing. I'm sending hugs and prayers to you sweetheart keep up the big fight it'll all pay off in the end I know God has wonderful plans for you you are such a strong beautiful person don't ever forget that.❤️
You got this!! Power injectable ports are awesome. Save the info card. If you need a CT w/contrast, it saves you from getting a peripheral IV. Labs, meds, blood transfusions. RN Judy (in Clovis too).
Iv had colorectal cancer surgery and had to have an iliostomy in 4 1/2 months iv tryed 7 different bags but salts confidence be are really good and the one I'm using at the moment is hollister moderma flex with adhesive border and I find them both very comfortable. Ask to see a stoma nurse and they should be able to help you to find your best fit x
Fashion Fair!? You took me all the way back to when I shopped there as a kid.... In the 90’s. I got so excited when I heard you mention it. I see you’re in Clovis, I grew up in Lemoore! Hey Valley Sis, Hey!! Praying today is a good one for you and your loved ones 💓
Why was Teddy on a leash inside your house? ☹️ My nephew needed a port for his chemo and I know sometimes they can be problematic so I wish you the Best outcome for your port surgery.
@@TressaArasheben Very safe and practical way of potty training. As long as they stay in your site so they don't get hung up on anything it is perfectly fine
My mom struggled for months to find the right ostamy unit, alot of leaks along the way. It was super rough. It Depends on your stoma and stomach, everyone is different. Is your stoma flush or does it stick out alot? If it doesn't stick out much, you need a Convex barrier. Also, get extenders to place around the edge of the skin barrier to keep it from leaking. It completely eliminated the leaking issue for my mom. Try Hollister New Image CeraPlus Skin Barrier #15303. It is convex. If you need a flat one, I'm sure there is a version that would work. She uses a closed end bag with it as she has an ostamy. For ilieostomy you might want to use a drainable bag. Hollister Adapt barrier extenders #79402. No lotions or moisturizers on the skin in that area or it won't stick. If u have more questions I'd be happy to help.
Tips for healing coming from a very sick person for over 16 years... Matcha green tea, apple cider vinegar, dry brushing for circulation, kombucha, aloe juice, turmeric, curry... Healing from the inside out. Btw, I live in Fresno. 🙂 Many many prayers to you. 💗🌷🙏
Vanessa, I am a fan!! I wish you much luck on your inspirational journey! B/t/w, Teddy is adorable!!!! Can you please tell me what breed he is? Keep the faith sweetheart...you're a star!
You’re super gorgeous! And I know how shallow that comment is with everything you’re going through, but I couldn’t help it. You are. My daughter went through cancer of her lymph nodes and I understand (somewhat) how hard this is. She got through that and you will get through this. Praying for you and your family! Love your sweet personality as well... 😊❤️❤️❤️ #newsubbie
Do you use a barrier ring under your bag? That can sometimes help. Have you reached out to any companies, or are you just trying a few that the hospital gave you? I had a colostomy, not an ileostomy, but I had to try many bags before I found what worked. It also changed over time, as I developed an allergy. Some of the companies are really great and will ask you a lot of questions and send you the samples that they think would be best for you. My favorite company was Coloplast. Convatec also sent me samples. I 2nd the comment about watching Maggie's channel. I'll look up two other channels I found helpful and add the channel names. Good luck getting it all figured out. It's a journey.
Here are the other channels that I found helpful: Vegan Ostomy and Angie Sacha Rahlee. Angie's videos were older, but when I commented on her video, she responded and offered me personalized advice, based on her experience.
Thank you, yes i tried the ring and didn't work i have a very small stoma less than 1 inch and my abdomen is really small. I also tried the bags from hollister and coloplast and so far i have liked the ones from the hospital so far. or maybe because im getting the hang of those. but i will look at the ones you said thank you
@@VanessaLPZ1, it's so tough to figure out what works for you. Everyone is so different. I found that watching the videos help give me ideas, so when something came up, I had some things to consider trying. It's a frustrating adjustment, but hopefully you'll get things worked out. Hang in there.
I got my port yesterday and I am also in pain.... More today than yesterday so I appreciate you sharing your experience so i know its somewhat normal for some of us. Praying a speedy recovery and healing for you, me, and all cancer patients in Jesus Name Amen 🙏🙏🙏

A port helps so much. Sometimes you can taste the medicines some w it which is weird but it is so nice to have.
Definitely go watch Maggie on let’s talk ibd she’s had her bag since she was teenager and she’s an RN too
Try the brand Coloplast it has worked very well for me. I just had my surgery on March 31 and I have not had any difficulties with it.
You are an inspiration, God bless you and your family x
Having a port is way better and it’s an easy access when you start chemo. 😘😘😘
Thank you for your inspiration and journey 🙏I support you

💗🌺 Keep moving. Keep on doing what you are doing! 💪
I think Teddy will be good during your recovery and something to focus on. Good luck starting your chemo.
Gosh after a procedure they should wheel u out. That's heck of a long walk!! Glad it went well and your Aunt helped. Teddy is adorable!🥰
She was wheeled out sitting down while shouting that part of the video... (In her wheel c hair). I agree with you the puppy is adorable. :-)

My heart goes out to you. I know you will be ok!! Relax, take it easy.

No lotions or moisturizers on the skin in that area or it won't stick. If u have more questions I'd be happy to help.
