The First Meal

Tom was approved for solid food. They gave him a menu and he ordered a small salad, pepperoni pizza and Mac and cheese. He was hungry!   I was somewhere else in the hospital when he ate his lunch.  It proved to be a big mistake.  He was VERY uncomfortable for quite a while. I think they really should have given him some guidance on his selection.  So remember, don't order pepperoni pizza the day after your colostomy surgery!
