Good to see this, Todd. Glad to learn that you're home and most likely more comfortable. What a hellacious experience this must have been!

That’s great!! Did they have to do a colostomy? Are you serious! 21 days bedridden and sedated after a colon fix redo, a colostomy would a standard procedure. If done, it will be reversed when it is ready to be. That is also a standard procedure. In many cases, a colostomy is just a temporary plumbing bypass until the repaired pipes are back in place glued up and ready to go.

To be clear, I have no idea what was done or not done with Todd.
I do know that colostomies can be a fairly common procedure with certain colon surgeries, and they are often temporary procedures and, when ready, the bypass is reversed and the colon is stitched back together again.

Some people are so full of shit that an additional exit is required. I don't think that is the case with Todd, though I could name some others to whom it might apply.

That’s great!! Did they have to do a colostomy? Ileostomy, which they will reverse in a few weeks.
