Why?

Hope, Encouragement & Giggles

The Awesome Ollie Teddy Bear & Book gives encouragement and comfort to people with ostomies.

 

Ollie has a stoma and removable pouch, just like them! 

 

Ollie's fun, rhyming children's book tells his story from surgery to recovery and returning home.   

"Ollie the bear can run, jump, and swing.

Why, this fuzzy bear can do anything!

His tummy is happy and doesn't say "ouch"!  All thanks to his ostomy button and pouch."
