His being okay with wet underwear and pants give me one of the first clues something was really wrong. He claimed he didn't want to add to my laundry duties - which I kept explaining I was more than happy to do. He didn't want to wear Depends for a long time and he has to go a LOT day and night. Even with Avodart and Flomax it isn't controlled.

He is now using shower wipes, which are proving helpful! And he is using his walker full time since the ETM guys had to get him up. I think he is now terrified of falling. Robin and I are terrified of his falling!

So hopeful Mayo will be able to help - or at least we will know where we stand rather than just guessing. Fortunately he is looking forward to Mayo. Before he wouldn't hear of it. And, unlike other doctor/home health visits, maybe he won't do a 'showtime'. Hard to get help when you will do anything to prove you don't need it even when you know you do. So trying to get that across to him. Tomorrow is the MRI!
