Navigating the world of ostomies and J-pouches can be challenging, but you’re not alone. Whether you are newly diagnosed or a seasoned veteran in managing your condition, the Calgary Ostomy & J-Pouch Virtual Support Group offers a community filled with understanding, resources, and invaluable support. We meet monthly on the last Tuesday every month at 7 pm MST via Zoom.

Our meeting is an opportunity to connect with others in the Calgary or Southern Alberta area who genuinely understand what you’re going through. Share your experiences, learn from others, and find the emotional support to make all the difference in your journey.

Our discussion will cover critical aspects of ostomy management, including diet, hydration, and how to choose the right appliances for your needs.

For those with a J-pouch, we’re planning a “breakout group” session to focus on your unique challenges and questions, depending on attendance.

Who Should Attend?

This event is designed for anyone with an ileostomy, urostomy, colostomy, or J-pouch or those looking to learn more about living with these conditions.

Join us from the comfort of your home for an evening of support, learning, and connection. We look forward to seeing you there.
