I to am also diabetic,and i have nerve damage to te bladder leaving me incontinent,so yes having a diaper on heps me cope with my situation,as not only dse it mean that i dont have wet trousers,but it also means that i dont have a wetbed come the morning.
And if i did not have my diaper i would not be able to go out and about the way i do,to be totaly honest if i did not have my iapers,then i wuld not be able to lead the sort o life that i do just now.
