    Thanks for the advice, I’m nervous about my long haul flight later this year. What was it like going through the security checkpoint?/x ray?

    Just an update, my ileostomy has shrunk to 1 3/8 and the only leaks I have is when I forget to get up at 2 am to check my bag, both nights I slept in, I had a leak. luckily my body has learned and woke me right away, so no blankets or sheets soiled. I go on my first flight in two weeks, thanks so much for your tips and tricks. Keep smiling.

      Fantastic progress! My body does the same, it wakes me up before I explode everywhere! Good luck with your flight, you will be fine 😊🤩
