A. "I don't want to look at it and I can't imagine caring for it." suggests resistance or avoidance, which indicates that the patient is not ready to learn or engage in colostomy care. B. "I hope I can still wear a bathing suit with this thing." shows concern about body image but doesn't indicate readiness to learn about practical care C. "The sooner I can take care of it the sooner I can go home." shows a desire to learn and a positive attitude toward managing the colostomy care independently, indicating readiness to learn. D.
