Morbus Hirsprung

My kid had Morbus Hirsprung and may have to get his bowels totally removed if it doesnt shrink back to normal . What happens if his bowel is totally removed?

I hope you find a support group at a nearby children's hospital's genetic clinic.  My daughter's former neighbor has two children with Hirschsprung's condition.

The family worked really hard with the children's doctors to get the proper nutrition and management for other needs.  My grandson enjoyed his playtimes with his friend who had a Hirschsprung's condition.  Community healthcare teamwork was very helpful.
