I don't quite know how this forum works yet, so I don't know if you saw any of my comments. I also suggested trying the two-piece appliance. For me, once I tried, I never looked back! With a two-piece, there's no draining. You can't see your input, etc. Just toss them in the bags they come with, tie the bag in a tight knot, and toss in the trash. Put a new one, and you're done. After about 4-5 days, you change the piece that the bag snaps to. There are wipes you can order to clean around the piece (around the stoma area). For me, when it comes to appliances, you can't go wrong with these. :) Worth a try!
