Woman with Ostomy Bag Refused Entry to Bathroom with Disability Access
That’s the message English blogger Sam Cleasby hopes readers take away from her piece in the Metro U.K., which describes what happened last week when the Sheffield native was refused usage of a handicap bathroom at a concert stadium.
The mother-of-three was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis in 2003, and had a colectomy and ileostomy in 2013. Due to the procedures, she wears a medical device known as a ostomy bag to collect waste from her body through her stoma – a surgical opening in the abdomen.
