Attitudes
Are you worried about your appliance showing under your clothes, or your stoma protruding enough to show? People today lead busy lives at a fast pace. Everyone is very concerned with their own happenings. Aren't you? By the way, what is the color of your bus driver's hair? Did the sales clerk wear a dress or slacks today? What color was the bank teller's tie? Give up? Thenforget about uncalled-for worries and enjoy your every day. Remember... your attitude about your image will affect the attitude of your family and friends. The first step on the ladder to adjustment must be taken by YOU!
