CANCER SURVIVOR STARTS STYLE BLOG FOR COLOSTOMY BAG WEARERS
A woman who battled aggressive bowel cancer has started a fashion blog offering style tips for those living with a colostomy bag. Suzanne Doré, 42, of Rayne, Essex, discovered that dressing in the wrong type of clothes led to unfortunate mishaps, including a leaking bag – so she launched blog ‘Gladrags and Bags’ last month to share her style tips with others. After five years with a colostomy bag – and a growing love for clothes – Suzanne has picked up some helpful ways to dress comfortably, yet fashionably.
