To whoever asked about his having to wear a bag? That's only rarely done now. They sometimes create temporary colostomies while people heal from colon resections, but 8 times out of 10 the surgeons go back in after the healing is complete and reconnect the gut and let people return to somewhat normal bowel function. That often means practically eating just outside the bathroom door because the food's going to go right straight through a much shorter gut. But at least it doesn't mean dealing with a colostomy bag.
That's good to know, I've not kept up on cutting edge medical procedures these past few years. That cholostemy bag deal pretty much ruined quality of life, and isolated you from public exposure. I'll check my sources a little more before posting.
