Thanks so much Ginger, it is wonderfull to know help & advice is only a mouse click away, I dont know how but he says that he hasnt had much pain, he is one tough cookie & doesnt like to complain, we have told him that pain is expected & it is alright to say your not to good, he does have a stoma nurse that he sees once a week, but because of infection in the wound he is having a nurse call in daily for re dressing & re packing the wound. So far I think he isnt having any troubles with the bag, well none that he is talking about anyway, so hopefully its all good, I still cant believe how well he is doing apart from the infection, but fingers crossed he will be over that soon enough.
Thanks once again to all the thoughts & prayers people have sent our way it is truly apprechiated. I am certainly thinking of you all.
regards,
Cathy.
