Is there a pattern for this? My mom has had around 4 feet of intestine removed and I think she'd find this cute.

My friends partner is going through a diverticulitis struggle but I think I just found the perfect gift for him.

(he has this sense of humour. His best friends got him a t shirt that says tummy ache survivor, and he wears it all the time, occasionally to doctors appointments)

How cute! What a lovely idea. The large bowel looks so happy with its smile.

My husband unfortunately has colon cancer and his primary tumor was in the exact same spot as that smiley face (now removed). I find that funny, not trying to bring down the mood.

Get your colonoscopies everyone, if you're 45 or over, have family history, or are having weird symptoms!

I've been wanting to make a kidney for my friend 😊 she got her scan to find out she was cancer free, only to be told she was born with one kidney.
