@linda82, I wish you the best for a continued recovery.

I trust you will be able to travel again. Sixteen mothns ago, when I had my low anterior resection (I no longer have neither a rectum, sigmoid nor mesorectum), I thought it would take at least a year before I'd be able to travel again. Well, not even three month later, I took a 1.5 hour flight for a work week-end. My colleagues accomodated me in a room on my own, so my frequent need to use the bathroom would not bother anybody, and I only had two small accidents noone noticed. Five months after my surgery, I was able to take a trip that implied two 2-hour flights each way. So, don't despair!
