Oh my, that is so young! I am scared to death about what my son has to
go through over the years. He has been under control now for over four
years! My sister has been different, she has a colostomy and it is now
permanent one! She has had numerous surgeries, and she ahs never
complained of pain after all those surgeries, and quite a few bowel
resections. I hope your daughter is feeling better soon! How old is she
now?
Take care all,
Toni
