When you said "As an olde schoolmarm, it was hard to get bathroom breaks except at lunch and end-of-day so for decades, I practiced and became far too accomplished at "holding in the urine". Now realize that was not a healthy accomplishment," I immediately thought of @retiredteacher, as she too has shared that this is one of the not so positive aspects of teaching.

@colleenyoung So many careers require you to be vigilant, and not always able to take a "comfort break" as needed. Like @feisty76 and @retiredteacher, if I had known how damaging it was to my health, I would have pushed the issue more, and campaigned for more coverage.
