Thanks, Sylvia, I'll make my mom aware. I didn't expect a picnic, I figured it had to be hard on the bowels to get reconnected after resting a good many months. My mom had been taking "benefiber" with her colostomy, I think that is something we should ask the doctor if she should continue. She is still on IV's & has not even started liquids, so I am sure she has some bumps in the road ahead of her.
Thanks, for the response, Sylvia & thank you for the prayers for my mom, I will do the same for you.
Enjoy your daily blessings.....

Hi Trish, I had my "take down" last june and I did pass blood,it was not bright red blood.I have had a lot of problems with mine. When I went home, I could not go potty. I had to see the on call Dr. he did 2 enemas in his office and I was fine. As a year has passed, I've had problems in getting regular. Please advise your mom to drink lot's of water,I take a tablespoon of milk of mag every other day, but I now pass bright red blood, my dr. thinks it's from straining. I wish your mom well and my prayers are with ya'll.
Thanks, Sylvia///
