Susan, thank you for your reply. We just need to figure out the best food for him, so he doesn't have another bowel blockage.

Does he have a stricture or scarring that is causing narrowing of the bowel? If so high fiber, or something that causes a bolus of fiber (like eating an orange or grapefruit with the membrane on) can cause problems. Lower fiber foods, or macerating foods (like making smoothies in a blender) might make sense.
