Looking Back at 2025 and Forward to 2026

Hello,

When we started North Sound Ostomy, with the goal of promoting the quality of life for people with ostomies, we never thought that 4 years later we would be reaching so many.

In 2025, we had gatherings with numerous guest speakers, social meetups at local coffee shops, and a summer picnic at the park. We also launched a new donated supply closet, and hosted the largest World Ostomy Awareness Day event on the West Coast. 

Most of you might not know that we have been self-funding the group since its inception. But a few months ago, we started accepting tax-deductible donations. As a matter of fact, we just received a donation from Coloplast, which will surely defray a portion of our operating costs for next year. Thanks for your support, any bit helps.

To round up the year, we will be having our annual Christmas party on Saturday, 2pm at The RAM in Lake Stevens. Drop us a note if you'd like to attend, so we can make sure there's enough tables set up.

What a year! And we couldn't have done it without all of you.

As far as 2026, we've already made plans. Head to the website to see all of our scheduled gatherings (one per quarter) and monthly social meetups. We'll also have a picnic in the summer and annual Christmas party, and hopefully our 4th Ostomy Awareness Fair in October.

We look forward to seeing you all in the next year, and wish you a joyful and peaceful holiday season filled with warmth, love, and cherished moments.

All the best,

Erik C. Thauvin
Co-Founder
North Sound Ostomy
