First I'd say if you're doing fine with the bag you can stick to it for sometime. People live with unconnected pouch for very long time. There's a minimum period to let it heal but no maximum for it. The poop and mucus may sometime leak through into the pouch making him want to use the bathroom to get it out. When they seal it they completely remove the pouch and shut the anus never to be used again. Ask some expert and give it another year to heal. There are some advanced procedures like BCIR which don't need a bag. His body's been through much so its fine if he doesnt want to get another surgery for sometime.
