Colostomy
by: Trudy H. on Wed, Jul 16 2008

My sister has had colon problems and was in a hospital for months, had a colostomy and now has had it reversed. She has entered the hospital once since because of gastric problems. She is home, but having problems eating. She is on a feeding tube at night to get her nutrients. Is there a diet for her?
