By: Chloelias

Year Condition Began: 2017


My little boy was 4 weeks premature and was diagnosed with hirshsprungs when he was a 3 weeks old we spent between one and two months with him in hospital. He got transferred from our home hospital to Cardiff to have wash outs and to have an operation. The operation was successful and he has a colostomy bag some point next year he could be having it reversed to have the affected bit taken away and have his pull through so he could pass poo properly.. me and my other half (17 and 19) couldn't be more proud of our son.. He's now home on oxygen
