hey everyone I'm write about my ostomy for my english class, I'd like you to
read it and tell me if I should edit some parts add
Last November I had to have emergency surgery because my colon wasn't doing
good, the doctor told me that I had a 50 50 chance of coming out of surgery I
was scared, the days were hard after the surgery because I had a colostomy and I
had to get adjusted to it. I got to go home November 12 and it wasn't easy
because I had nurses come in and change my colostomy bag and I wasn't use to it,
they told me that it will take time.
Now it's almost been a month since I have had the colostomy I'm pretty much
adjusted to it, I have met a lot of nice people threw the nurses system and now
I'm ready to get discharged from them and get help from another program. The
nurses and home health aides have helped me cope with my colostomy. My mom and I
have figured out ways of doing the bag and we always come up with new idea's,
I'm great full for my mom.
If I haven't gotten the colostomy I would have died without it, on the days that
I get frustrated I think that it has saved my life.
