i have found a great trick for all of you who have stomas who like to come out while you are trying to change the bag. I learned it from a home ostomy nurse when we couldn't get a bag to fit on right. if you eat like 5 marshmalls 15 to 20 minutes before you change it the marshmallows actually dry the little stoma up so you can get it changed. and you even get a little break before it starts to flow again.
just thought i would share that little tidbit.
