A Chance To Heal

Friday, January 13, 2012

After a year of health difficulties, my husband had to relearn many skills, including using the restroom. It took him some time to become adjusted to his healing body so he didn’t always make it in time. For a grown man who had always been in charge of his faculties, this was particularly frustrating.

I bought him Medline disposable briefs that fit comfortably under his pants so he could go out and about without worrying about accidents. As his body healed up and he became more aware of warning signs he needed the disposable briefs less and less. Although he was grateful to have them when he needed them, he was so excited when he was finally rid of them for good.

Caring for Dad

Thursday, July 22, 2010

When my mother died a few months ago, my dad told me that he didn’t want to continue living in their home by himself. In recent years his health has been in a steady decline, so I suggested going to an assisted living facility. As soon as I brought it up I could see the disappointment in his eyes; I quickly retracted my statement and invited him to come live with my wife and I, an invitation which he readily accepted.

Honestly, I was expecting to have to be tending to his father constantly, but he’s been surprisingly self-sufficient. He changes his own Tena disposable briefs, bathes himself and even takes our dog for walks in the afternoon. Since he was a high school math teacher, he’s also been helping our youngest child with his math assignments. The situation is working out beautifully, and I’m a bit ashamed of my prior apprehensions.

Many people with incontinence issues think that they are the only ones, but the truth of the matter is that over 25 million people in the United States alone are suffering from incontinence.

While it is most common in people over 50 years old, incontinence can be an issue for younger people as well. There are myriad causes of incontinence, but weak bladder muscles, stroke and other diseases are some of the most common culprits. Luckily, several products can help you manage the condition, including Depend disposable briefs and pads.
