It sure helps to read how others are coping with multiple illnesses but just not working for me. Having fecal incontinence now since C,Diff and over 100 vancomycin seems to have affected the other illnesses eg going for a walk and having an accident half way through; travelling to a specialist - and having an accident half way there; also history of late stage radiation damage to pelvis and my spouse could not understand why i couldnt reach bathroom in time but sadly he also had radiation to pelvis and now he is in similar predicatment. Even going to the drs, shopping, visiting both of us with illness now complicated by the bowel issue - and its a subject not many want to discuss, not even my adult children Thing is they say; wear disposable diapers but they only work for urine incontinence not the other! Sorry to bring this into conversation, but its just all the other illnesses seem to be impacted by this - and how can we even move to a nursing home/old folks home when we never know when we have to jump in the shower - who wants to clean up after us when we will no longer be able to do it ourselves - it is a real downer!
