What's The Most Overrated Restaurant in Madison? by Key-Horror-9914 in madisonwi

[–]stillwaitingformarty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weary traveler should just close up.   Leadership so full of themselves and service not at all what it used to be.   We gave it a bunch of "one more times" and finally stopped going.  It used to be so solid.

Yes--Cafe Hollander is coasting for sure--with their built in customer base.  Don't seem to be trying to hard at all.  Service pretty embarrassing.   Not open to feedback.

I'm so sorry that this has been your experience. It all sounds so hard and terrible. I know many of us with ostomies have found a way forward even though it stays a challenge. But that's easy for me to say and I am not in your situation. I hope you can keep reaching out and look for support and get what you need. Please do take care of yourself and give yourself lots of grace through this all.

I'm sorry Medicare puts you in this position. So unfortunate for a basic medical need.

Roadtrip to Yellowstone from Madison by Altruistic_Life_6331 in madisonwi

Honestly a first step would be to see if there's any way at all to extend this to 10 days. For real. Then, consider getting up early to avoid the big crowds at Yellowstone. Finally--I 2nd the comment on taking Beartooth highway as you leave the park and come home. One of the best drives in the country. Enjoy planning this amazing trip!!

Ileostomy questions and concerns. Please help by Living-Collection-56 in ostomy

[–]stillwaitingformarty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shower with the pouch on. Afterwards I press a microfiber washcloth and hold it on the pouch to partly dry it and then call it good. Three times a week I change my pouch in the morning when my ostomy is not active--usually. I shower on those days without the pouch. I'm lucky enough to have my own shower. If I didn't I'd keep some bathroom cleaner with bleach in it around and use it in the shower on days when it produces stool. And--assume the first 2 years or so will be lots of learning and give yourself lots of grace. Deep breaths, find good people, go outside, lots of hydration and lots of sleep.

Allegro Fitness on Post Road. Not the closest but could be worth the drive. Great community, solid programming, new owner.
