94. Steve and his drive to change lives for patients with stomas; Meet Steve Sterling of U-Can

“It’s ok to say I want back what was me before. It’s ok to say I want the quality of life back.” ~ Steve

Today, we talk with Steve. Steve is an experienced physiotherapist who lived with a temporary ileostomy for 7 months post resection, after surgery due to Bowel Cancer.

He decided to choose quality of life over quantity when he opted to stop his 2nd chemotherapy midway, focusing on improved choices of lifestyle - fitness, food, good relationships, etc.

However, this experience was also an eye opener for Steve. From bouts of erectile dysfunction, Peyronies, and to the challenges of having a stoma on his abdomen.

All this led to his discovery and invention - an invention geared towards lessening the challenges of patients with a stoma.

Listen here to this inspiring story from Steve.

And remember, from Steve’s message, U-can!
