I’m finally 6 weeks post ileostomy surgery, and I’ve been cleared to start introducing more foods into my diet.
Ostomy liners – a second thought
I’ve really been racking my brain over how to get these ostomy liners to work for me – especially after having to use a porta-potty and a very awkward public washroom over the weekend.
Ostomy bag liners – Colo-Majic
My stoma nurse came to visit today and introduced me to an ostomy bag liner that she suggested I try: The Colo-Majic ostomy pouch liner.
Vegan Meal replacement – what I’ve settled on (Updated Oct 16, 2013)
Ensure and Boost seem to be the most popular choices for those coming out of surgery, as they offer an easy to digest, “nutritionally balanced” option for those with digestive difficulties or with restricted ability to eat solid foods (i.e. new ostomates). Unfortunately, neither of the brands offer a vegan option.
A start of something new.
So you’ve either landed on this page because you’re vegan, an ostomate or both.
