Generation Colon

A dear friend of mine forwarded me a video detailing the story of the Petunia Bag. I was blown away by beach shots of an enthusiastic woman, standing proudly with a pouch on the side of her tummy. Her name is Heather Matson and she is the owner of Petunia Ostomy Designs

Frustrated with the lack of bathing suits that accommodate her colostomy bag, she decided to style them up: "I am young, I want to wear a two piece." Although she was new to sowing, she started creating covers for her ostomy bag. She didn't think much of it, until she showed it to her ostomy support group. Now-a-days Heather can't keep up with demand and has many orders placed for the year, some going all the way to Germany.

"I am the 8th Matson, part of the Generation Colon," she proudly affirms as both her grandfather and father had the same genetic mutation that led to her diagnosis.  After her third month in remission, she remembers when her surrounding doctor and nurses asked her how she was coping with her then new companion, her ostomy bag. "I just remember telling them, oh this old thing, my grandpa had it." 

Even before she was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer, she knew what being different was like. "My grandpa, his brother and my cousin all had stoma bags, so I was raised by being different, and each difference in my family made me love and cherish them." At first, getting used to the permanency of the stoma bag was not easy. "I was crying, I knew I needed to do something to change my perception towards the bag," and that's where the idea of the stoma bag covers came from. 

She chose to name her stoma and thus her business, Petunia from her love for flowers and colors. Heather thrives in getting to know each and every single one of her customers. She also runs a Facebook group focused on providing a positive and uplifting message for the ostomy community. She is a true #migamuse

    I was among many other victims of a crypto investment scam, and just like others, I was hugely invested in this and ended up falling victim to an organized crypto fraud scheme. All efforts to recover our funds through legal authorities proved abortive, and I could only wait till they could apprehend these people physically, which I know can never be possible. I had sleepless nights and suffered in silence. Fortunately, I came across a positive review on crypto recovery loss. Dune Nectar Web Expert, I sent them all the information, their service charges were honestly underpriced because of the amount I had lost. Considering how much we have all invested into this investment, I was scared Dune Nectar Web Expert couldn’t deliver successfully, but the reverse is the case. Dune Nectar Web Expert was able to trace and recover my invested crypto funds and gave us the address of the culprit, a group of youths in West Africa, which we later handed over their information to the authorities. I was truly amazed at how quickly I was able to recover my lost crypto investment. Humanity has lost its cause. It’s disheartening how people could go to defraud others to fund their extravagant lifestyle. but I’m hugely grateful for the services of Dune Nectar Web Expert. They were beneficial and professional..

    I made a costly mistake on Coinbase, sending $43,000 worth of Bitcoin to an incorrect address. The support team informed me that recovery was impossible. Desperate for a solution, I researched online and discovered Morphohack, a company with a proven track record in cryptocurrency recovery. I contacted them, providing transaction details and screenshots. To my surprise, Morphohack successfully tracked down my Bitcoin, which had been transferred to multiple micro wallets, and recovered approximately $39,800. If you’ve lost Bitcoins or other crypto due to a similar mistake, lost access to your crypto wallet, Morphohack Cyber Service may be able to assist you.
