Interesting Realization At Thanksgiving...

[Guitarzan]

Maybe these numbers are unusual, but.... Of the six people at Thanksgiving dinner, five of us deal with incontinence in some form.

The three women all suffer from stress incontinence, with one of them having some nerve damage. (ages 50, 53, and 71) One of the guys had prostate cancer and deals with the side effects from surgery.(70) And then myself (48) with nerve damage from a tumor causing spinal cord damage. (added the ages just to show it's not only an old people's issue)

Just an observation. But it did make me wonder how many families have multiple members who deal with incontinence?

Same here one time a co worker swung by to visit and when I walked him out I saw a bunch of bags of first quality diapers and some under pads.

incontinence can be inherited

so having multiple family members with incontinence is more common then a lot of people think.
