Hi, Sol, I , too have run into several people who have had this done, one with a total large colon removal. She was at death's door with an infection. Apparently it had to be done or she wold have lost her life. Not sure if this was actually an infection or something else, at any rate, she is living a normal life with her bag. I'm sure she probably wishes she had not had to have it done, but is only glad to be alive and doing everything she did before without problems. The other person I only found out about last night. She had the partial done 3-4 years ago. She had a tumor, She didn't say if it was a cancerous one or not. She also is leading a normal life and has no problems. What I didn't ask her is how much of her colon was removed. I just know it wasn't all of it. Will ask her when I get a chance. The doctors all have warned me of the possible consquences. And nobody, not even the surgeon is pushing me to a decision. The surgeon definitely does not want to do the surgery if we can get my colon to work more normally without. Thanks for your input. I am happy to get infomation about other people who have had this surgery , either their positive or negative reactions. there is no doubt , that if I have it done, there will be days when I will wish I hadn''t. Ruth

And Ruth - don't let what someone else says about it - I have known 3 people that had one, and while publicly, they all said essentially what you heard ('its not so bad') - privately, they told me they would give *anything* to go back in time and be able to choose *not* to do it.
