Dave,

Their is another group available to strictly urostomates since we
are way in the minority, and urostomy stuff tends to get overlooked.
You can join the group urostomy2(a)yahoogroups.com by sending an email
to Urostomy2-subscribe(a)yahoogroups.com, and you can jump in and join
us. My urostomy is just about 20 years old, and though there is
always the option of penile implant available to urostomates, the
wife and I who were married in excess of 20 years at the time,
discussed the condition and opted out of that solution for sexual
satisfaction. Love can be demonstrated (agreeably) in many ways
under adverse conditions. Additionally, others in the group may be
able to provide you with other 'solutions' to your dilemma. I am
one of two moderators with the group, the other being my bud from
the UK, and I hail from Pensacola, FL. Just don't give up.

As income tax time approaches, did you ever notice: When you put the
two words "The" and "IRS" together, it spells
"THEIRS"?

I have had an ostomy for 9 years. I have also had an experience with the so
called "Open Marriage" concept. A word of advice. It doesnt work. If a woman
loves you, she will not ask you do do such a thing. There are other ways of
satisfying a woman. If she cant be content with those methods, tell her to
move on. In my experience, those that matter dont mind, and those that mind
dont matter.

Feel free to contact me if you need a friend. You sound like you do.

Jim
