I started this blog almost 12 years ago. So much has changed since then. Life with #InflammatoryBowelDisease, an #ostomy, and #fibromyalgia means I'm constantly evolving, sometimes by choice and sometimes because my body demands it. I’m just popping in to say hi 👋 and check in on how you're doing. #Ostomates, I'd love to hear from Sensura Mio users! Have you ever wondered why some people never develop #IBD even when it’s in their family? 🧬✨ 📣 I need help from users of #MenstrualCups 🙏🏻 My cousin suggested a taxi to an area in #Reykjavik with waterfalls and woods for the 14th. Surprisingly, everyone was up for it, despite the fact we were all completely exhausted 😂 I think it being our last day played part in us managing to rally! Me in Iceland: I got a text earlier saying: On Jan 13th, we had a slow start to the day and then went on a whale watching boat trip. It was invigoratingly cold for an hour, but then it was just bloody freezing 🥶 I glimpsed a whale numerous times, though 🥰 Jan 12th... The #NorthernLights graced us with their presence, AGAIN 🥰 In total awe 😍 Jan 12th was #Reykjavik park and zoo. I fell in love with a sheep 😍 Jan 11th reel 😍 #AuroraBorealis #NorthernLights #Iceland #Reykjavik
