Hi,
My mum recently got diagnosed with Colorectal cancer and had undergone surgery, she was in hospital for 2 weeks and now she is home. She is currently wearing a bag for stoma. She is currently finding everything uncomfortable - bed, couch, chair. Hoping to get suggestions on how to make her comfortable at home - where to get ergonomic furniturs etc. Thanks
Dear ValOm.
Thank you for posting on our online forum. I am sorry to read that your mother was diagnosed with colorectal cancer and is having some discomfort with her stoma bag. I do hope that you hear from others who may be able to address your query. In the meantime, you could have a chat with one of our cancer nurses who may be able to give you some suggestions on how to support your mother. Our number is 1800 200 700, and we are here Monday-Fridy, from 0900-1700. I do hope that we hear from you.
Kind regards,
Cancer Nurse
