March is colorectal cancer awareness month. Colorectal cancer is the #1 cancer in Singapore and sometimes, an ostomy is created as part of the treatment for colorectal cancer. Living with ostomy can be challenging but you are not alone. Ostomy Association of Singapore is a charity association that aims to provide support for ostomates. Learn more about the services and activities organized by OAS at oas.org.sg
