When mum has a stoma 

Tip Print Share

>
If a child is close to someone with a stoma, it often helps to talk openly to the child about it. When information is given openly, most children have no trouble accepting it. In fact, secrecy and a lack of openness may make them think that the situation is worse than it actually is.

This real life story describes one couple’s way of handling the dialogue with their little son when one of them became ill, was operated for a stoma and had to learn to live with it. Their story might inspire you to tackle the situation in a similar way in your family.
