We are adopting a 3 year old boy from another country. He has a
strange colostomy with a significantly prolapsed colon. He will be
going for surgery as soon as he gets over the stomach flu.
I am learning about bags and he is a unique challenge with a foot of
intestines to include. My problem is the smell...even when the bag
is totally sealed. Any ideas?
He also, with this stomach virus, is very gassy and I am afraid the
bag gets so full of air it will explode!
