From: Kathy from England on 30 Jun 2007 13:48 Main Chat is Saturday 8pm UK Time which is 3pm EST ish. Today's chat is dedicated to the memory of Alva, who passed away unexpectedly on Monday. Alva was an Op in the room and a friend to many. It gave her great pleasure to see people overcoming their problems and she loved to help. She would not want us to be sad, so today we will celebrate her life, and remember the good times we shared. Have you been told you need an ostomy (colostomy/ileostomy/urostomy) to deal with your condition? Maybe you have already had this surgery and are coping with it? Or maybe a loved one is dealing with this and you want to support them? We are an ostomy support group, here to help you with both the practical side of living with your ostomy and the emotional issues. You will meet people of all ages and with different medical conditions. Some have a reversable ostomy, others a permanant one. We also have those who have undergone a reversal or a J pouch. Don't face it alone. Want to chat another time? The room is open 24/7 and is usually busy. Online clock to help with those time zones!! Now you can check what time it is in the UK: http://www.ostomylinks.co.uk/chattimes.html If you have a serious ostomy support question please do not hesitate to ask us. We'll stop fooling around and support you as best as we can. Its a fun, friendly atmosphere in here, but we all know the seriousness of the ostomy topics. We respect that this room is here to support everyone and their ostomy needs. ========= To join Ostomyland via java go to: http://www.ostomysupport.info/chat.html (Jason's page) Or http://www.autoimmunity.co.uk/chat/ostomyland.html (Kathy's back up page) and join us in the ostomyland chat room from there.

We usually get a small group in 6pm - 9pm Perth (Australia) time - come and join us. ========= The channel is open 24/7 for general chit chat or ostomy talk during the week.
