Womenwith a partner, who had completed high school, presence of profession/occupation, income above 1 minimum wage, Catholicism practitioners, with permanent colostomy for more than five years of achievement, who had a malignant neoplasm of the colon as a cause and showed no disease/comorbidities showed self-esteem above average.
