Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your query, my opinion is as follows. 1. Hope his sepsis is treated and he is not more infected. 2. Nutritional diet along with good amount of fluids is necessary. 3. Psychological support is very essential. He had a critical surgery. Family support will help him improve along with diet and fluids. Protein rich diet is important. Maintain a sterile area around colostomy to prevent any infection. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
