With 2022 coming increasingly to a close (where has that year gone?!), we wanted to take the time to thank you as one of our readers for your continued support for another year!

We have blogged (with the help of Rachel) and vlogged (with the help of Ant) about many things such as all about stoma supportwear, friendship, ostomy fashion, food & drink, ostomy education, dating & relationships, travel, exercise & more over on our blog.

But what were the 5 posts that made the cut to the top this year? Let's find out!

5. Can you have a sex life after stoma surgery?
