  1. Now that he’s a fall risk and shouldn’t be getting out of bed by himself, they typically arm the bed alarm that senses a reduction of the weight on the bed.  So, if he tries to get to the bathroom on his own, the alarm goes off letting everyone in the vicinity that he’s not complying with the staff’s instructions. 

  2. I wouldn't worry too much about needing a diaper during the colonoscopy.  First off, they can't do the colonoscopy if you've got a diaper on.  They had a disposable underpad under me when I had it done.  When I woke up the pad was rather wet with what came out both ends.  The nurse quickly changed that out when they realized I was now conscious and ready to start getting ready to leave.

  3. The thing that I’ve learned over my years of wearing diapers is that people are too involved in their own lives to really notice details of anyone around them.  We may be very conscious of the bulk of our diapers, but other people are unlikely to notice or if they do they only likely to think you’re a little fat.

  4. Over the years, there were a number of times that I messed my pants or my diapers (after I’d been put back into them after toilet training).  I tried to hide the evidence of my misbehavior.  Sometimes I was successful, other times not.  The first time I messed my pants and was caught landed me back in diapers for an extended period of time. As I got older, I got better at concealing the evidence.  However, even then, I was occasionally found out because of stupid mistakes that led to some uncomfortable grilling by my mother.

    Pretty well. I used pads for 10 weeks and on other occasions such as travelling when I think it might be wise. Passing wind with a full bladder is risky! Care needed. The big down side is total ED but it is worth it if you manage to get rid of the cancer. That was 9 years ago; so far so good. I am now soon 80.

    I’m glad to hear you’re doing well.

  6. I’m glad things are going so well for you.  

    I suspect you won’t be too happy with pull-up diapers when it comes time to change.  Most of the time you have to undress completely below the waist, including shoes, to get the wet diaper off and the new one on.

    I’ve found that cloth diapers are economically the best choice around the house and for night use.  They don’t have the capacity of disposable diapers, but over time, they are a lot less expensive.  At night, they are less likely to leak.

    Good luck, I’m certainly envious.  When I was your age, I would have jumped at the chance to do what you’ve done if such a procedure had been available.  As it is, I no longer really need to be incontinent to wear diapers.  Nearly everyone almost expects people my age to be wearing diapers and my underwear confirms their expectations.

    My inner sphincter and prostate were removed by robotic keyhole surgery going in through the navel after some prostate cancer was found 9 years ago.

    If I were dealing with prostate cancer, I’d ask for exactly the procedure you had.  It is definitely an improvement over the older open surgery technique with a quicker recovery and fewer abdominal muscles disrupted.  However, it still has exposed incisions that are potential sources of infection. 

    Were you able to regain bladder control after the surgery?

  8. The problem with taking the abdominal route to the sphincter is that you are now in the realm of open surgery cutting through the skin and abdominal muscles to get to the sphincter.  The TURP route has a faster recovery and less likely chance of infection.

  9. When you have the time and are in a safe location (home), it would be worthwhile to experiment with the diaper of your choice and see how long you can go before the diaper starts to leak.  It’s good information to know if you ever need to push a diaper to it limit.

  10. It will interesting to hear how your first day back at work went.  You’ve jumped into the deep end of the incontinence pool and will have to learn how to swim in a hurry. It took me years to learn all the nuances of managing incontinence.

  11. That’s great to hear.  Given your earlier comments about the blockages and such, I thought you might have ended up in an emergency room. I’m sure we’ll all be interested in your experiences with your new condition.  Even though I worked at becoming incontinent for many years, I discovered that “wanting” to be incontinent and “being” incontinent are distinctly different experiences.

  12. Years ago I tried tucking, but things never stayed in place very long.  These days I don’t have to be concerned about that and couldn’t tuck things in even if I wanted to. My penis has shrunk so much that it has withdrawn into my body and is no longer exposed most of the time thanks to age and medications for blood pressure and BPH. 

  13. I hope the extended time using the catheter solves your problem.  I thought removing it after five days was a bit on the optimistic side.  Nearly everyone who’s had any type of urinary surgery that I’ve heard of has needed to use a catheter for ten days after the surgery and needed to stay near the surgeon’s office or be able to return to it for that entire time.

  14. I just looked at the Trest diapers on Amazon and the price seems ridiculous. $4.50/per diaper is very high. The Seni Quattro diapers I use are $1.87/diaper when purchased by the case.  I can easily wear them for 8 hours without leaking and still have some reserve capacity.  It seems like you go broke very quickly if you wore Trest diapers regularly.
