Welcome @jbcisandi1, I'm tagging fellow members @candywocrn @engelee and @jstanhill, who may have some suggestions for you.

I'm sorry to hear that the hernia cannot be repaired. Can you share a bit more why the support belt didn't work?

Thanks! I’m hoping to find a support belt or something that will hold the stomach in a bit, in addition to supporting the hernia without restricting the colostomy function. It would be great to wear normal clothing again, and, to be honest, it’s hard to keep positive when I look down and see this Hugh stomach.
