- Abstract
This is a qualitative study with phenomenological inspiration. Aimed to understand the meaning of being colostomyzed and participate in a program of care to ostomy patients. The study was conducted with seven colostomyzed people, by an interview contemplating the question: "What does it mean for you to have a colostomy?". The following categories emerged: changes in everyday life - adaptation to a new situation; Transformation of the body -- influence in the biopsychosocial context; Influence of time and the religious support on acceptance in being stomatyzed; Role of the family and the operative group role; A chance to live with some limitations, overcoming discrimination. We conclude that people with ostomies go through bodily changes that influence self-esteem and relationships in social life. It is noticed that the course of time, and the association with religiosity and support of family members and operational groups are important for the acceptance and adaptation to new conditions.
