Video: Colostomy Irrigation for Bowel Cancer & Colon Cancer

Title: Colostomy Irrigation for Bowel Cancer & Colon Cancer

Added: Jul 12, 2008

Author: Lifespanz

Description:
This is a 9 minute video for people who have had bowel cancer surgery and now have a colostomy. So many people with a colostomy do not know about colostomy irrigation and how it can get freedom and normality back into ones life. This video is an instructional guide on how to do a colostomy irrigation and I hope should be a great help to those who have had bowel cancer surgery.If you have any questions or need support please email me to lifespantrust@gmail.com
