What surgery did Amy brenneman recent have?
Amy Brenneman recently had surgery done due to her battle with an Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) called Ulcerative Colitis which is basically ulcers of the large intestine. All over google i have seen that her bowels are now "fixed" and "cured". This is not so. Ulcerative Colitis is an uncurable disease. It is unknown what causes it but it can be down to many factors. Genes,Environment,Diet,Stress. So she could not have had her intestines "fixed" the only surgery that can be done for Ulcerative colitis is the removal of the large intestine or to get a pouch attached to your small colon and let your waste into that for a year and let your large bowel heal over time then reattach it back to small intestine. But there is still a risk of it returning. So to me I believe Amy Brenneman now has a colostomy bag. If this is not the case and she had a surgury which "fixed" her bowels well I want the number because I also suffer from Ulcerative Colitis.

Can a person live with out a large intestine?
Of course you can, I am proof of that. 10 years ago my large intestine burst, in an emergency surgery they had to remove all of the large intestine and a section of small intestine. Immediately following the surgery I had to have an ileostomy, that is the illeum section of the small bowel sticking out of your belly and you have a bag attached to it. After allowing my body to heal for 3 months they then reconnected my small intestine to the remaining rectum so I no longer have a ileostomy. It does certainly change your life as there are many things that I can no longer eat and food goes through me very quickly, although now it is slower than it was at first, I can usually go a couple hours before I have to go where in the beginning it was about 15 minutes. Also you always have diarrhea, there are some foods that will thicken it up a little (like bananas for example) but I will never have a formed stool again. I am much healthier now than I was before the surgeries, it saved my life to lose my large intestine.
What about your nerve being cut during surgery Does it ever heal?

Can you live without a large intestine?
Yes, but only with medical support. Individuals who have the large intestine removed, or with an intestinal bypass, may have their ileum directly connected to the colon or rectum, and will not utilize the large intestine (an ileostomy is often used as an intermediate step). Since absorption of nutrients takes place in the small intestine, this allows continued metabolism. However, this condition can lead to dehydration due to lack of water absoption, and deficiencies of some vitamins that are taken in through the large intestine.
Can you live without your large intestine?
Yes. Some medical conditions require the removal of the bowel or a bypass from the small intestine to the rectum or sigmoid colon. However, this requires careful medical monitoring. Food will pass through the system quickly and will be excreted in a more liquid form. Dehydration can be a problem because the large intestine is where water (and some vitamins) are removed. (see discussion)

Does surgery help an individual with broken eardrum?
Surgery for a broken eardrum, or tympanic membrane perforation, can be beneficial in certain cases, particularly when the tear is large, does not heal on its own, or leads to recurrent infections. The procedure, called tympanoplasty, aims to repair the eardrum and restore normal hearing. However, many small perforations can heal naturally without surgical intervention. The decision for surgery depends on the specific circumstances and the patient's overall health.
