Hollister Ostomy Supplies - Living with a Stoma -- The Patient Perspective

Living with a Stoma -- The Patient Perspective is a video diary part of The Secure Start Video Diaries produced by Hollister.  Having ostomy surgery is life changing and challenging.  There two basic types: the intestinal diversion which is a colostomy and ileostomy and the urinary diversion or urostomy.  A stoma is created where you eliminate your body's waste (either stool or urine).  The stoma is a piece of bowel that is surgically attached to the abdomen and is approximately the size of a quarter.  Everyone varies in size, but the stoma is vascular and sensitive requiring a gentle touch.

Hollister's Secure Start Video Diaries can be a helpful tool in learning about ostomy surgery and how to care for yourself after surgery.  Click here to go to their link.  Living with a Stoma--The Patient Perspective.
