May you recover completely and may you be healthy and happy and live a long life
Amen!!🙏🏻🥰
I completely agree with T T's comment about one day this will be a memory. I am a Cancer survivor stage 4. I was young like you are and went through HELL. I know how you feel and what you are going through. You got this! You will walk through the fire and get to the other side. I think it is great news that the cancer didn't spread to your uterus. I will be praying for your quick recovery.
One day this will be a memory and you will think" I did it and I'm here with my family " .You got this girl !

Praying for healing. 🙏🏻❤️
Bless your sweetest heart, I’m so sorry you’ve had these struggles trying to get well. I’m a 20 year breast cancer survivor (surgeries, chemo & radiation)...i remember those days so well...I pray you start having more good days than bad very soon 💚💚💚
Ileostomy care is different for each person, and nobody knows your body better than you. Your body will adapt; however, if I may offer a couple suggestions to possibly help speed healing along safely:
Stay hydrated as best as you can. An ileostomy typically results in malabsorption of fluids, nutrients, and medications. "Perative" nutritional supplement has micronutrients which absorb better than "Ensure." It's good to supplement even while eating regular foods. Medications with a coating don't absorb completely.
To temporarily slow down output, injest three marshmallows about twenty minutes before changing the wafer/pouch.
Lastly, a stoma creates a weakened area in the abdominal wall...try to avoid heavy work so that the stoma doesn't bulge and herniate. Leaks develop as your abdomen changes shape. Schedule an appointment with your wound/ostomy nurse to protect your delicate skin. They'll have wonderful solutions to help keep your skin/stoma healthy.
Take care and God Bless🥰
Really
I know I am not alone in being so incredibly encouraged by your journey, watching you gave me the strength to get through recent scopes & tests, praying for your complete healing and peace 💐
I have been praying for you, I knew you weren’t doing well , when you didn’t post. Praying for better days ahead. My daughter- in - law had to wear a bag for 3 months after having part of her large intestines and small intestine removed because of endometriosis. Her’s was so bad she also had a total hysterectomy, the surgery lasted from 11:30 am to 7:30 pm. She had already had an ovary removed, her Doctor specialized in her surgery and told my son her case was one of the worse top 2 cases he had seen. But she had her bowel reversal and it went well. I pray things go more smoothly for you. Hugs and prayers!🙏✝️❤️
You got this, you’re gonna look back one day at this and know how many people you helped while you’re living your best life!!
You are soooo brave and strong and my heart goes out to you I am a forth time cancer survivor just again had major surgery and this time a colostomy I had a n illiostomy now tumours removed from my pelvic I wish you healing and good health love and hugs xx ♥️
I'm so glad it didn't spread. I'm sorry about the complications. Sending hugs and prayers.
Im so touched by your honesty and your ability to go thru whatever it takes you cry when you need to. Bless you with all the strength you need
Oh sweetheart, you’ve been in my thoughts these past few weeks. Sending you big virtual hugs from the Netherlands.
Praying for you and your family. They must be scared for you. Get well soon. You are so brave.
Bless your heart. We went through this with my husband in December over Christmas. He is half way finished with chemo. You are strong and will beat this. Praying for you and your family.
I have been praying for you. 💙💙💙 In the future if you get too much watery output, try eating marshmallows, it helps. I am so sorry from the bottom of my heart. I remember how horrible and afraid I was after I got my ileostomy. You’re so much braver than I ever was.💙💙
Bananas help thicken the stool as well.
@@jamiejohnson1371 I agree that works too.💐
Yes i tried everything and it was about 2.5 Liters a day lol it was outrageous
@@VanessaLPZ1 I am so sorry. I had such a hard time with mine for the first few months and as soon as I got used to it, it was time go do a reversal. Still cancer free. You’re my warrior sister.💙💙💙
I’m glad your surgery is done, I will keep you in my prayers that you recover soon;) 🌸💕
God is with u 🙏 you'll be fine prayers on your way
You are such a trooper. Praying for your speedy recovery. Sending you hugs 🤗
I'm 5 half weeks post surgery for colorecal cancer in the UK 🇬🇧 I just want to reach out and send you love❤️❤️ and hugs rest loads and take it easy
I'm only now starting to eat real food everything has been soft foods with small bits up till now I was wowed to see your hospital food after surgery pasta and chicken 👀
I don't have to tell you how happy i am that your surgery is over. Just rest, eat well and take care of yourself. There is nothing more to say but "God bless you". You are going to do well. May you recover quickly and get back to living your life fully with your precious family. Love you🥰
I felt so sad for you when you started to cry . You are so brave . But everyone has that little breaking point. I think you did very well though being all alone . And you were tired and sick . You need to learn , listen to your body when you start to cry it’s your signal you need to go to bed and sleep. Sending you thousands of hugs and prayers for healing strength.
♥️♥️🥰♥️🙏🏻

Where’s that light tie dye outfit you were in your going home part of the video? I love it! You look absolutely STUNNING in this whole video! You’re such a huge inspiration to all of us!
You're a very brave girl, Vanessa !! Hope you recover completely soon...
Praying for a complete recovery, stay strong ❤
I hope everything goes well for you in the future and you're soon feeling better. I had my stoma op 2 years ago in the UK. and eventually came to terms with using my stoma bags. I'm old, but you are young and should be able to cope a lot better. Good luck, I'll keep watching and wish you well.
You are going through so much. I've been in hospital twice for a week each time and just couldn't wait to get back home even though I was bent over in pain it was such a relief. Praying for an amazing outcome and that you will have a blessed future xxxxx
OMGOODNESS, my dear!
All love, and best wishes to you! 👍
Claire, Berlin, Germany ❤
I'm so sorry you are 😢 cause you didn't get any rest
Glad your gone home, hope you get well from your complication and your resting in you home
I’m sorry you’ve had some complications. It can take time for the body to adjust to having a ileostomy. Sending lots of hugs, hope you’re feeling better soon x
Sending you lots of love and light 💛
You are one brave lady I often wish I was strong enough to have documented my battle with colon rectal cancer but I was to focused on surviving so I admire your unselfishness and sending prayers for you and your family
Hi hun u did so awesome and only good thing's to come stay blessed beautiful lady ❤
I pray for a complete recovery ....God Bless you 🙏🙏🙏
Be strong..... you may feel like you falling down but what matters is that you keep getting up... I’m going for my colonoscopy and fistula surgery Tuesday I’m nervous but I’m trying to just relax! Good luck & I hope your recovery is safe and fast
Thank you for taking so much time to share your journey. You’re in my prayers! 💕
You're so strong!
Your such a strong 💪🏻 woman i admire you keep it up you are gonna get thru this your almost there 🍀
🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 glad everything went ok and you had good news with the non-spreading of the cancer!
You are such a sweet and beautiful young girl honey. You looked so pretty in the outfit you had on. I'm definitely sending up prayers for you and I hope you're feeling alot better now. Honey, you're a very strong person and you'll get through this. I truly believe that because you haven't been negative at all and you took it all head on like a champ. Much love to you sweet girl. :)
I can totally understand the noise situation, when you cannot rest or put yourself into sleep, I was in the hospital for 3 weeks last year and I didn't have a one single night of good sleep, still complaining about my pain and it was mentally and physically draining, so I am glad you like your new room better and you will be home soon❤️💖🍀.
🙏My prayers are with u get will soon 🌺🙏 Hawaii is sending u lots of prayers and love 🙏
Can I just say what an amazing woman you are !!! It is so easy to complain about the little stupid things in life, which dont matter. Here you are having to deal with this life changing scary and painful illness and you are so inspirational !!! Thank you for sharing this part of your life. I know this is helping so many, who might be going through a similar diagnosis. I am sending you virtual hugs. 💕💕💕💕
I kept you in my prayers all these time🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Your Amaizing.., stay strong. Praying for your recovery.🙏💙🌹🌹🌹
This video threw me back to 2 years ago, when I had the same surgery like you. Like I commented on the previous video, you had to prepare for at least 6 to 10 days in the hospital, and you even had 12! So sorry for you, because I also remember vividly how tired I was after the 10 days in the hospital, no tight sleep, no rest, so it is better to be home to recover. I hope that the set-back after you went home has not to do with the surgery on the ileostomy, because with me that was the case and I had problems with it cos the surgent made the ileostomy to long, so they reversed it allready soon after 3 months, even though I had to have chemo. I wish you a good recovery and remember, everything is gonna be ok, stay strong and positive!
I LOVE YOU YOU BEAUTIFUL ANGEL YOU BEAUTIFUL WARRIOR I WISH YOU ALLLLLL THE BESTTTT
Omg, my heart hurts for you😥 I just want to give you a big hug. I know you will get through this, you are a fighter. Continue to put it in God’s hands. 🙏🏻♥️ sending healing vibes and a card your way.
BIG HUGS....So glad you are home with your babies. Take care of yourself, rest, relax, recharge. You have a purpose.
I just happened to come across your you videos and OMG you are an Angel 😇. What an absolutely beautiful strong woman you are!!!!!! Not sure if you have loaded more videos but I definitely am wanting to follow you. I pray this finds you doing well. You are a true warrior princess, and no matter what you keep fighting!!!! You are an inspiration to so many people including myself. Thank you for sharing such personal experiences. God Bless you. 😘🤗
Thanks for subbing!
You’re absolutely gorgeous. I admire your positivity through such a difficult time that you’re faced with. Keep fighting the good fight and I hope that after your surgery is over, the cancer won’t ever return. 💕 hang tight.
Vanessa, I was recently admitted for a procedure (not cancer related) but I can relate to the desperation of wanting to finally go home and rest and be at peace. I was only admitted for 3 days in a dingy, tiny dark room with no access to my window with equipment everywhere & started to feel depressed. You are SO strong and I admire your resilience. Keep moving forward for you and your family because you have a bright future. I pray for your continued journey and health.
I wish you a speedy recovery.
Vanessa you are so brave. I am praying for you. I hope by the time we see this you are doing really well. You deserve the gift of healing. God Bless you.
You are a such a strong young woman. You are a warrior. Praying for your continued healing!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️

How do you look so beautiful after all this? I'm sorry you are still have issues post surgery. We think about you everyday. I know you'll get through this. Remember that it's ok to cry and be frustrated. Strong people cry and get frustrated. I will be anxiously waiting for your next video. In the meantime, take care of yourself please. My boyfriend is my hero for getting through this and now because of your strength, I have two heros.💙💙💙💙💪
that prep is always the worst with ibd makes it so hard and painful thanks for sharing your story inspires so many what sweet neighbours a great video
Prep is awful 🙋
Hey girl! I don't know you personally but you seem like a nice person! Hope you have a quick and full recovery!! Cheering for you!!🙂
Praying for your healing
Keep you head up. It's a long fight. But you are strong. It does feel like your body in a way has betrayed you and some days feels like your body doesn't wanna fight with you. But keep chugging along. Your body body just needs the time to adjust. I was placed in remmision on Friday. Its been a long battle. But worth the fight. I belive you can kick cancers ass.
You’re so brave ❤️
No rest in the hospital is the truth, i had a sigmoid colectomy last october and left 24 hours after surgery, my roomate was loud and blared his tv constantly . Walked out with my backpack and meds..
U are so strong, wish u best of all!
You look so good. I just know that you will be ok. Take care you sweet lady xo
Sending many blessing and positive energy you’re way. You’re so strong.
Wishing you a speedy recovery 🙏🏼
Girl you are so brave and awesome....you got this.
Never had the bowel prep before, but I’ve had to take that metronidazole before a surgery before and it was HELL for me. I had to have three a day for 10 days before the surgery and was so so sick for all 10 days. I’m sure that mixed with the bowel prep was so awful and you are so incredibly brave and strong for getting through all of this. 😭💖
You are so strong, the worst is now behind you! xx
Thinking of you with Love and compassion..
Your going to make it !! KEEP TELLING YOURSELF !! PRAY TO GOD !! HE IS THE ONLY ONE TO HEAL YOU !! PLEASE!! PRAY TO OUR LORD GOD !! PLEASE ! ASK/TRUST THAT YOU WILL BE HEALED !! GOD BLESS YOU !!
