We are so new to this, my husband had his urostomy 8 weeks ago, and feel as if we could use some help in some ageas.
Rightr now me, his wife is puting the bag on, but he is very anxious to start to do it himself, bet we have no ideal how to set it up for him to see to get the bag on properly. Also any ideals for hook up at night, we are using the foley bag like they did in the hospital but he has such limited movement. Also what to do when he bathes, do you cover the bag with a big plastic bag, and where do you all buy your supplies. I I know we will have more question and will post them later.these right now questions as time goes on
Any help in any area and any suggestion will be very appreciated. He will have chemo, but has to gain his weight back as he lost 30lbs so that will not happen for a while. Also he gets pain in his tail bone area, anyone out there have that problem?
Waiting to hear, as I said any suggestions in any area are welcome.
Thank you.
Grannie
