Dorothy and Gerry on Roseberry Topping
of The Voice. Travelling abroad is
something that I have been thinking
about. I too would very much like a
copy of the letter to take on board

Sally Lane and Lesley Dempsey at
University Hospital Aintree, or pass
my details on to them.

any larys have ever gone swimming
in the sea with supervision?
Thank you and keep up the good
work.

readers been swimming in the sea with appropriate
supervision? Please let us know…

decided against it. We feel that the two lengths of
Trachi Naze stud AND the use of a Kapigel spacer,
will accommodate the vast majority of users’
requirements. The use of the Kapi Gel spacers help
reduce the length of the stoma studs. We have two
thicknesses - 2mm (thin) and 4mm (thick). A popular
