@Crocs I have returned crocs 16th June now July 9th 21 days! and no refund received. I’ve messaged on Instagram text with robots x20+
Times with no success. Disappointing experience. No uk telephone number and Holland number does not connect. Please advise as very frustrated.

@SenecaLearn I am still awaiting contact regarding refund. I sent email address.
Cancelled service as school finished and exams completed and still charged £72.

[M Downing @mdowning3]

Have you lived with a stoma in another country? We’d love to hear about your experience! What surprised you?

[Jax’s stoma journey BCyA @Jax87539443]

Been quiet on here as been so busy . Little Jax update.

He has been in his new school now for coming up for 2 full terms . Not one day off . For Jax this is such a huge achievement as you all know how much he suffered in his last school . Homeschooling was great but now he’s in this school you realise just how much he needed it . He’s happy , he’s thriving and generally in just a good place right now.

Hope your all well ❤️
