Hi

My husband came out of hospital yesterday after his bowel cancer surgery and ileostomy. He is struggling to stay hydrated. Liquid just comes straight out again however he is not wee'ing. He's had a hydration drink. He really doesn't want to start Imodium all the time as he has heart issues.

He was also very bloated last night after dinner. He had a very small portion of mashed potatoe and a slither of garlic bread. 

Any tips for the first few days would be appreciated.
