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

    Sharing my experience investing in Bitcoin and losing money to scammers is something I’m willing to do. Nevertheless, you can get your stolen bitcoins back. I was led to assume that Bitcoin recovery was impossible, so I never gave it much thought. I did, however, lose over $92,000 as a result of falling for a forex scam that promised excessively high profits somewhere in May. After a month of looking for assistance, I eventually found an article on Reddit about recovering stolen cryptocurrency and contacted (wizardjamesrecovery@usa.com). Because I had heard about negative situations, I was quite dubious and afraid. Nevertheless, I chose to give him a shot, and to my utter amazement, I was able to retrieve all of my stolen bitcoins from the scammers in a remarkably short amount of time. Additionally, they were able to show me the most reliable and authentic Bitcoin investment.

    In the past, I was timid and uninformed about cryptocurrencies. Regretfully, my in-law, who thought he knew a little about investment, persuaded me. I deposited more than £155,000, my hard-earned savings intended for a new home, with the aim of swiftly doubling my money and a little greed. That proved to be the biggest error I’ve ever made. The anticipated profits did not materialize after several weeks. I realized that I had been duped. I sobbed for days and nights, feeling guilty and remorseful. My in-law was also a victim of the same scam, so I couldn’t even confide in him. I had to try, even though I knew there was little hope of regaining anything. In my frantic quest for assistance, I read reviews of Wizard James Recovery. Fortunately, I was able to get in touch with someone they had assisted successfully in a similar circumstance. I had a glimmer of hope after that. I contacted Wizard James Recovery and carefully followed their directions. A few days later, I was relieved to hear the amazing news that my money had been located and was on its way back to me. I received the majority of my savings back after they deducted their well-earned share for the recovery service. I am so grateful to them. A rebuilt future emerged from what appeared to be a lost cause. Know that there is still hope if you find yourself in a similar circumstance. SPEAK WITH THEM NOW AT +447418367204 ON WHATSAPP
