Getting used to having a stoma was a challenge. One way she learned to love her new body was by embracing the changes. She posed for a photo shoot in her underwear as a way of showing that you can still be body-positive after surgery for inflammatory bowel disease.
The photos were taken by Linda Blacker. A mini-documentary about the photo shoot premiered at the Buffer Festival in Los Angeles.
In a blog post, Witton said her recovery was not always easy and that she had been on an “emotional rollercoaster.”

Here’s the video description from YouTube: “On 14th January 2018 I had life altering surgery that resulted in my having a stoma. I now have a huge scar and wear a stoma bag, which I’ve decided to call #MonaTheStoma.”
Witton talks about her IBD and her surgery in several other videos on her YouTube channel. Her other content focuses on topics such as relationships, sex, liberation and welfare issues, literature, and travel.
