Expert By Experience Sophie
Season 6, Episode 8, Aug 30, 2023, 12:00 AM
In this episode, Hannah is joined by Coloplast Ambassador Sophie.
An Emergency Support Worker by trade, Sophie was diagnosed with Ulcerative colitis in 2020 and had an ileostomy - which she calls Mona The Stoma - later that same year.
Sophie talks to Hannah about her life with her stoma. How she was determined to get back to work, in what is a very physical, manual intensive job. How a second dog came around as a result of Sophie's operation and how her experience is helping her daughter who is currently going through the investigative phase of diagnosing bowel disease.
