🌍 Today on #WorldOstomyDay, we’re raising awareness of the diverse realities of living with a #stoma.

For some in our #IBD community, it’s life-saving, liberating, and brings relief. For others, it can feel overwhelming, isolating, or a reminder of what’s been lost. 💜

I see a lot of these patients who are referred to hematology due to known hematologic effects of gender affirming hormones.

This decision will be devastating to them.

Absolutely Heartbreaking.
