Hi Linda my name joe First time to this site. Hope you will help me. Looking for people with continent-ileostomy ,I work nights and can not attain the local group around here. Looking for feed back. thank you

On that same page listing support groups, you will see a group at the top of the list called "Virtual (non-local) groups". The very first one is for the Continent Diversion Network. If you click on Lynne's name at the right of that list, you can send her an email as well.

Also, on this very forum go up to the top and click on "Board Index" and then click on "Continent diversion forum". Ask your specific questions there, where there are several people who have a continent ileostomy.

Welcome, and good luck!
