Born with Hirschsprung's Disease. Pull-through done a few days after birth. Numerous bouts of enterocolitis. Currently 6-years-old and after years of bowel management issues, working with a great doctor. She received a cecostomy button in September to irrigate her through daily rather than rectal irrigations. Next month she will have a portion of exhausted intestines removed as well as a repeat pull-through due to biopsy showing negative nerve cells. Happy, loving, caring child otherwise. :-)
