Lisa Duff

@magsmac59 Thank you everyone for your kind words and prayers. Surgery all went to plan still in recovery but waiting to be moved to the discharge ward so glad I’m getting home today 😊

Hello, my Twitter friends, if you're not too busy, could you say a wee prayer for my daughter @LisaDuff1711? She's in for surgery today, she's been struggling with pain & infections too long now, hopefully this surgery will alleviate that for her 🙏

@magsmac59 Thanks mum really needed to know what I’m coming home to lol xx

Good morning everyone, looks like that's our summer well and truly over. What a miserable day, it's like a monsoon out there. Have a good day whatever you're doing.

@magsmac59 Oh god no 😱 is it heavy

It's feckin baltic, and we have snow ❄️ 🥶

@magsmac59 I’m hear 👋

Wtf with the smoke 🍀

@magsmac59 Keep pushing I know you can do this 🥰

Day 9 Struggling really bad today and it's doing my nut in, especially after having such a positive day yesterday. I'M NOT GIVING UP!

@MarieMaristir @magsmac59 You can do it 😘

@magsmac59 You can do it

Wish me luck folks, I'm going to need all the help I can get.

@magsmac59 I’m so excited 🥰🥰

Off to Edinburgh today with @LisaDuff1711 to see Wicked, wee overnight stay and a good few drinks 🥂🍸🍹

@stomababe This is disgusting, your illness does not stop you being human, I have crohns with a stoma, my son was 5 when I was diagnosed and 8 when I had my op. He’s has been amazing and is my rock. Your amazing and stunning keep going xx

Imagine thinking this is acceptable to send to a new mum….

@magsmac59 Me to, I was telling josh the other day about our shopping days lol xx

@LisaDuff1711 I miss our days in the town where we used to spend the whole day shopping, stopping for a wee spot of lunch in-between shops 🎅🌲

Can't believe I'm saying this in October but, I've started my xmas shopping 🎅

@stomababe @GSTTnhs You had your surgery same year as me, I had mine March 2021 😊

The month I give birth will be exactly 2 years since my life saving stoma operation in 2021. Let’s just hope on this occasion it doesn’t result in a two month stay! @GSTTnhs

@magsmac59 @Morbidful That was a great documentary you should also watch girl in the basement, not a documentary but based on a true story

@Morbidful I watched a documentary called girl in the picture...mind blowing

What’s the best true crime movie/series you’ve ever watched?

@HDE_Sheraby The ways things have been you’ll need all them in the same day 🤣

@stomababe My boy 🥰

My pretty girl 💕

Post the last photo of your pet on your phone. I’ll go first. No cheating 😆

@Glitterygutsx @OTB_Belfast I feel your pain, I’ve had my barbie butt for 2 years developed a sinus tract 4 mths later got an op to flatten them in feb and still not healed, still got leakage and bleeding and pain. Driving me insane 😩

@OTB_Belfast It's not bad enough for a and e and they wouldn't be able to sort it there anyways its too complex! 😩 local MP was really rude to me when we last spoke so won't be contacting them again either (regarding housing). X

Waited MONTHS for my IBD appointment for it to be fucking cancelled. My surgeon won't see me for my barbie butt issues so guess I'm just left to it yet again for however more long!

@stomababe Oh I feel for you, I feel like I’m always dehydrated but can take dioralyte. Ors is good as well and has a better taste than dioralyte

Lucozade not touching the side, and I refuse to drink dioralyte as I had a very traumatic experience in hospital with it where doctors made me drink two jugs a day for three weeks.

Having a stoma and being pregnant in this heat is no joke. When I tell you I am dehydrated…. 😓

@stomababe @magsmac59 It wasn’t no it was a sinus tract that developed after having my rectum removed I got it cut and flattened out in February but it is still healing ❤️‍🩹

@magsmac59 Is it a mucus fistula your daughter has?

For those who criticise me, please do remember I am a chronically unwell person who is pregnant, works in full-time employment, hosts a podcast for chronically unwell people and manages five active social accounts raising awareness of stoma bags. It is not easy but I try my best!

@stomababe I woke up this morning with a leak luckily I was at home and just jumped in the shower but it has happened at work before but thankfully my boss was great I had forgotten my supplies that day and he told me not to worry and just get home and he’d see me the next day

What I propose would be in the kit and why.

A list of why you may need an emergency stoma kit. Any of these can happen to anyone at any time. Regardless of if you carry your supplies with you at all times.

@magsmac59 @stomababe I follow stomababe on instagram and signed her petition yesterday for easier access to stoma Supplies xx

@stomababe My daughter has had a stoma for the past 2 years, she's still struggling with her fistula, she's still in pain and keeps getting infections, my heart breaks for her, I so wish i could make ut better for her
