What is the stage now with colon cancer IF there is blood in the ostomy pouch?



woman....92..colon cancer...no chemo, no radiation... now she is listless, not eating, swollen stomach and blood seen in the pouch. its been 5 months since dr said to let nature takes its course. tia

There can be many reasons for the blood in the ostomy, but at 92 yrs old, what are you going to do about it except keep her comfortable and soon her journey will be over.
It would be cruel to do anything other than just keep her comfortable.
I would get another Doctors opinion as the blood in the pouch the stoma at times will bleed this may be the source of the blood. Get help
right away.
this woman is 92, she is not having "quality" life,,I feel very bad for her, but cases like this are probably the most compelling argument for either euthanasia or legally assisted suicide, as harsh as it may sound..
