Get to know me: Hi i'm Jules, an ileostomate from QLD. I enjoy gardening, sewing and renovating my home.
Why i want to support you: Twelve years ago, I underwent a total colectomy due to autonomic dysfunction, which was later followed by a permanent ileostomy. I truly appreciate my stoma; it has restored the life I always wanted. As an operating room nurse, my stoma allows me to thrive in my career, and it has freed me from the constant anxiety I faced before. Now I can travel with confidence and enjoy life to the fullest. I also find great joy in supporting patients who are preparing for their own stoma journeys, sharing the hope and resilience that comes with this transformation.
