Laura Cox has an Ostomy Lifestyle Interview with Brian Greenberg, Founder and President of The Intense Intestines Foundation.
Brian has had Crohn’s disease since he was 11 years old. While away at college his disease started to become more severe. At 19 years old Brian underwent 13 rectal surgeries in a 19 month span of time. Finally, when Brian was 28-years-old he made the decision to undergo ostomy surgery, which he says has improved his life greatly.
In this video interview, Brian talks about his attitude towards having an ostomy and how it’s changed over the years. He discusses how he lives his life to the fullest, what accomplishments he has had since surgery, the inspiration to start his foundation and much more!
Check out the video interview above.
You can find more with Brian Greenberg, along with Eric Polsinelli of Vegan Ostomy and Bret Cromer of the United Ostomy Association of America and Youth Rally in this recorded webinar of a roundtable discussion between the three men, hosted by our Ostomy Lifestyle Specialist, Laura Cox.
Now that summer is here, may I swim in a pool? If so, will my ostomy bag be affected by chlorine in the water?
