One guy I knew who had one had a joke that he would open the bag up and pull the peanuts out to eat them later. I guess he didn't digest the peanuts so they were left in his bag with other stuffs? I never asked to see the contents either. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Hopefully you can get that thing off sooner than later.

on a side note, nearly all the colostomy bags I seen on people were due to them taking gunshot wounds to the abdomen. They also had a huge vertical scar running from their sternum down to their lower gut.

Made me understand that even if you live from a gunshot, the aftermath is nothing to sneeze at and sometimes the injury is something a person has to live with for the rest of their lives.
yeah i have to chew food well, don't digest fiber much at all; but no real scars cause i got laparoscopic surgery. Most annoying thing to me atm is that it interferes with certain types of exercise I enjoy. But just a few more months and i'll be all good [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
