I promise that I will continue writing it as long as I can. I even have a side chapter started that is written entirely from Xerxes perspective. -

Classic concept with a lot of room for Joey to feel both the positive and negatives of it all, great start. That said, I was also hung up on the major discrepancies with Lucas. Was that a typo? Is he okay? Yeah I know that a level of suspension of disbelief is needed for the genre, (ex: people believing someone looks like they fit into a daycare when they’re an adult, thinking an adult could so easily lift and carry another adult, etc.), but this stuck out to me as well. Four-year-olds speak in complex sentences and manage many personal care tasks including bathrooming (it wouldn’t be an offhanded thought that it was, “a little late” to potty train, but a big sticking point). They experience and understand increasingly complex emotions and cause and effect. Four-year-olds don’t sit in high chairs or sleep in cribs typically either. Putting a four year old in a playpen would be quite unusual. Unless special needs they would also not wear a onesie. A four year old wouldn’t say, “baby! Baby!”, they’d say, “Joey, why do you have one of my pacis in your mouth?! You’re not little like me! You’re a grownup!”, and they’d say, “mommy why are we gonna treat Joey like a baby?” Or more likely, “I’m not a baby though!” And honestly they nosy as all get out, not ignoring conversations, but getting right up in it. Tell me you’ve never talked to a four-year-old without telling me…😂 I just recently spent an hour with a child under two who makes this Lucas kid look like he must need some EXTREME interventions. Or an age change would be easiest. One quick edit to his age would make it all make a lot more sense… My other thought was, “if Joey needs to work to help with bills then how is mom all of a sudden affording all of these deliveries of presumably adult baby items that we all know are costly? I do hope mom clears that up somehow. Maybe even just telling baby Joey that while they may have struggled in the past and his contribution was important, it has been some time that they’re good financially speaking. Maybe mom started her own business at some point or got a promotion or better job or something. Whatever the case I think it needs to be explained a bit. -
I can't agree more! I'm incontinent, often fully (slowly but surely is heading that way, PRAY spinal reconstruction allows whichever nerves are being HAMMERED ON come back although there's NO GUARANTEES when it comes to nerve damage!) and I am going to be in diapers until the day I die! I was CONVINCED my being IC meant a social death sentence, so I lied, tried to hide it.....you have to understand the circumstances: I have ALWAYS been one DRIVEN S.O.B.!!! I have great parents (will be 78 & 79 soon, and both are doing great, live 9 miles away on a pair of private lakes!) but growing up, especially with "Reaganomics", in an already economically depressed area meant HARD TIMES from 1981 until the 90s really, but 81-85 were BRUTAL! Friends of mine who used to live in a house now lived in a trailer park that went from 75-100 trailers to almost 1500 (it's back under 125 today) and MOST people were laid off, unemployed, where they work closed down and moved overseas...there was no work for many in the area. I grew up in northeast Pa, anthracite coal built this area, but that industry suffered a catastrophic collapse thanks to illegally mining too close to the bed of the Susquehanna River in the 1950s (Knox Mine Disaster, 12 men are forever entombed in flooded mines) and being they'd been mining anthracite for over 100 years by then, MOST of the mines (especially those in the Wyoming Valley (trivia time! The STATE of Wyoming is named after the Wyoming Valley, it is once again beautiful, although this is kind of recent!) but I began working at 10...on the farms, raking leaves, cutinggrass, shoveling snow and had to turn over parts of what I made, which never bothered me as if you had $5 back then? You were RICH LOL.... I was bullied mercilessly as a youngster, and molested. THAT drove me to GUARANTEE that NO ONE (and I do mean NO ONE!) could EVER again force me to do anything against my will. I began wrestling 2 years before i was "supposed to be on the team" and WOW did I get my ass kicked daily...but I was running, push ups, sit ups, pull ups and learning HOW TO BE *MEAN* when BEING MEAN was REQUIRED. By the age of 12, I was already 135lbs of rock, bench pressing 245 for 4 or 5 (1st time i ever touched weights!) and by 13, I was 151 and closing in on the high 200s, broke 300 right after turning 14. I also drove myself HARD to be the BEST mechanic on Earth (I know, not possible, but as a goal oriented individual, I had HIGH goals that only rose as I reached them in every facet of my life! Fast forward to 2004....I peaked at 67 1/2", but was 232lbs of HOLY SHIT (100% drug free!) with ZERO excess body fat! I was bench pressing 500+, able to max out the leg sled (1345, 18 reps 8 or 9x, goal was 20) and even had the 2 biggest guys in the gym at the time stand on top of the plates (over 1800lbs) and was able to do that for 7 or 8 reps. My Quadriceps were 1/2" shy of 30", my chest was almost 57" on a 35" waist. I became VIOLENTLY ILL within 24 hours of receiving all of the "deployment readiness inoculations" at the very start of the 1st Gulf War (never was deployed) as I collapsed within 24 hours, one of the FEW clear memories I have over the next week and change is the medics freaking out, looking for a 2nd thermometer.....when I asked why, I was told there's something wrong with this thermometer and being an old style mercury thermometer, I asked HOW? They told me I "pegged it"! THAT got my attention...I was in AGONIZING PAIN, "jackhammer chills" as I felt I was literally freezing to death, with a jackhammer beating on every joint in my body, ESPECIALLY my back! They found another thermometer, the look on their face and the fact they immediately had an ambulance rush me to a hospital told me this isn't good. I remember being packed in ice and they had the gall to tell me to quit screaming! AS IF I COULD HELP IT! Upon being returned to my unit, my Platoon Sgt grabbed me, made me file for my medical records, and he turned that in immediately. 2, maybe 3 days afterwards I received an envelope with a small sheet of paper that stated I HAVE NO MEDICAL RECORDS....THEY ARE LOST! THAT WAS FAST!!!!! I had sporadic issues ever since, but never anything that lasted more than a day or even hours until jan 18 2004 when life as I knew it ended. I was IMMENSE, and by Aug/Sept 04 I couldn't stand or walk and had been hiding i was peeing myself...started when asleep, but rapidly worsened and I wound up hospitalized for months in early October, lied, felt like shit, confessed and WOW did I have a new butthoe torn into me as I could had been hiding a major medical issue...plus I owned the #1 garage in the area, not 3/4 of an air mile from the hospital where I had to have 300-400 customers from, Dr's, nurses, technicians, janitor's...name it. I knew my nurse WELL, and for 15 years at least and I apologized so hard....my Dr made me SWEAR I'd never hide a problem or lie again, I have kept my word on that front. I have Neurogenic bladder as my immune system DESTROYED significant portions of my spine, my Coccyx (tailbone) is 100% encapsulated (calcified over) and the most diseased, nerve damaging, pain inducing bone in my body!!! Today I am awaiting MAJOR spinal reconstruction surgery in my Lumbar & Cervical spine, and full IC sadly has been more and more a part of my life for almost 3 years now. Insofar as believing me needing diapers was a social death sentence? I was never more mistaken in my life. My marriage INSTANTLY died, but that was more I was no longer "arm candy" and worse, no longer making an extra $1500-5k+/month CASH (all on the side at night) and it took me a year to recognize that...but I sacrificed my own mental health as there is NO CHANCE IN HELL IN PENNSYLVANIA a MAN will EVER get custody of his children, and I KNOW my sons wouldn't be ANYWHERE NEAR what they are today without me making that sacrifice. My oldest is working on his PhD, my youngest (almost as big as "REACHER" only like me, my sons are 100% drug free!) is in dental college! To give an idea of my "wife" (can't afford to divorce her YET, but SOON!) I came home from the hospital after 44 or 46 days to find my hospital bed (needed a walker/wheelchair!) was NOW in the basement!!!! When asked HOW I am supposed to get up & down the stairs I was told "NOT MY PROBLEM!!!!" There's a special place in hell for her! Honestly, that's NOTHING compared to what she's done to me. So for a hospital to demand diaper free??? HOW? I suppose I am supposed to wind up LITERALLY shitting the bed? My fear of IC turned out to be BADLY misplaced as NOT ONE PERSON treats me ANY differently! Never have! I've even been on 4 dates, none had any issue with this! Sadly I drew shit 4x in a row now...3 alcoholics and a "queen"! I am getting rid of a QUEEN! NEVER AGAIN! I hospitalized myself taking on jobs I had NO BUSINESS doing as it was that for the $$$ (I avg $75+/hr/cash when I CAN work, and in HIGH demand!) as it was either come up with 3k here, 5 there or else lose everything, and she did not give even a little shit! My sons NOW understand WHY I'd FLIP when she'd buy them $300 sneakers, brand new iPhones (I couldn't afford a cheap cell phone until i FINALLY got my VA disability over 6 years ago!) as well as everything else she bought that we ABSOLUTELY could NOT afford! NOW they understand the arguments, and had NO IDEA how often I hurt myself badly enough to require multiple surgeries afterwards......they understand today though, and they SEE exactly WHO their mother is...she only cares about one and ONLY ONE person on Earth! HERSELF! No wonder she never has a friend for more than 6-18 months! On the other hand, even while disabled, I coached football for 26 years (began LONG before I was disabled) as well as wrestling for almost 15 full seasons, another half dozen running the scoring tables/clocks for the school. I have more true friends than any man deserves in 5 lifetimes! NOW! IF ONLY I can find a NORMAL woman....someone capable of living on her own who chooses to be with me, not an alcoholic, a QUEEN....all I care about is PERSONALITY! Everything else means shit to me! Sorry, hard to write about one without adding in the other. I had TWO Dr's BUST MY BALLS about diapers as I was still IMMENSE until medical steroids added over 90lbs to my once "deformed" body.... Yeah asshole, I piss my pants and I can literally tear your head off, so go ahead and make another snide comment and see what happens! I am no longer "HUGE", and finally weigh less than I did when I got sick, but I'm going to be in diapers for life.....I've tried everything possible, nothing helps and NO WAY I am doing any surgery for this....IC is the ONLY medical issue I live with that causes me NO PAIN, so I really don't much think about it honestly. A hospital telling me no diapers had better have a LOT of people and a LOT of clean bedding as it is constant with wetting, GOD only knows with bowel issues. When they occur in your sleep, and you're AWAKE most nights due to pain??? Not much you can do, other than suck it up and drive on....IMPROVISE/ADAPT/OVERCOME! Every veteran was ingrained with this attitude....one of the 1st things you learn in the military! I'll be hospitalized for months in the near future (within a couple of months at 1st, likely much longer after that one scheduled for Oct 6th and I just had 5MRIs today, may have Necrosis in my hip/pelvis which may result in a phone call I NEED immediate surgery and my body goes INSANELY BALLISTIC with every invasive surgery i have ever had, so, REALLY PRAYING I do not have Necrosis! I'm going to learn shortly, I assume! Insofar as diapers? You bet your ass I am taking at least a week's supply with me for my Oct 6th (MAJOR sinus surgery can't breath through my nose, can't even smell gasoline!) and I have had this done 22 years ago, resulted in being intubated in the ICU for 6 days, and hospitalized for a month. This hospital is not 2 1/2 miles from my house so NO PROBLEM there! IF I have Necrosis? NO IDEA where I'll have surgery, spinal reconstruction will be at Jefferson University (Philly) so I'll start with a case upon arrival! I will be SHOCKED IF I am not hospitalized/in rehab for 3-5 months after that one! NOT looking forward to any of this! WHY are hospitals going diaper free, especially with people living with incontinence???? MAKES NO SENSE!
