In this episode, we're talking about getting married with a stoma. Gemma is a 32-year-old mum-of-two living with a colostomy. She's joined by her partner, Vic, who proposed to her in 2017 and has supported her throughout her journey with a stoma. They talk openly about the impact that having a stoma had on Gemma’s body image and the how Vic’s positive approach and support has helped Gemma to accept that it’s just part of who she is.
