Leighton M.
Wales, UKLiving with an ostomy since 2011
About Leighton:
Leighton had stoma surgery as a result of bowel cancer. He speaks enthusiastically about how his ostomy led to a change in the purpose of his life and a commitment to helping others. Leighton is positive and open about his journey. His stoma is now considered one of the family – and they fondly refer to it by the nickname Fudge!

Leighton's product success story:
"Hollister CeraPlus™ Ostomy Products transformed night times for me. Thanks to the two-piece pouching system I get seven hours of sleep. If I change my bag at midnight, nine times out of 10 I don’t need to empty my bag again until I wake up in the morning. Also, I find the CeraPlus™ Closed Pouches excellent for intimate moments because they don’t have a hard edge, and it’s a more comfortable experience. I’m happy to talk about these things as I’m so passionate about raising awareness.
CeraPlus™ Products, coupled with my positive mindset, helped give me my life back. I’d urge any new ostomate, or their family members, to reach out to the community for support; Hollister can help and social media can be useful. Remember, you’re not on your own!
Now that I use the CeraPlus™ Products, my life isn’t any different from anyone else’s. In fact, to one extent, it’s a bit simpler – when I’m at an event like a music festival, I don’t have to use a smelly portaloo (portable toilet) or go into any of those dingy areas!
No one should accept itchy, irritated peristomal skin as part of life with a stoma. I have noticed that Hollister is devoted to providing products with a secure, comfortable fit, to protect us ostomates from leakage, and to keep our healthy skin healthy."
