STOMA

by Amy Opstal

This is a story on how a full functioning body can suddenly let you down. It’s about the fragility of life, because inevitably we are all subject to change. I’m taking you on a journey to see what it means to face new bodily adjustments every single day. What it means to live with defect instead of default, and to still see the beauty of it. We take our bodies for granted until we start losing control. I want to remind you that nothing in life is self-evident.
