I’m in the office. The doctor’s office. That flyer regarding Medtronic Interstim for fecal incontinence that the doctor distributes? It highlights my words, my experiences. What an awesome outcome from my work as advocate.
“I could feel again. I could clench again. I could CONTROL my bowel movements again.” — Lauren
As I’ve said time and time again, advocacy is my way of dealing with my birth trauma, with my fecal incontinence, with my Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. OK, Advocacy and a whole lot of therapy, time, medical interventions, medications, and support helped me overcome the many obstacles that plagued me. However, at this point in my journey, support and advocacy are all that remain in my mission to lessen the stigma of birth trauma. It has been so very exciting to see my words in print by way of Medtronic Interstim advertising materials. It is encouraging that my words and my experiences are being distributed to those who may need the inspiration and information.
Thanks for reading,
Lauren
