Funny you mention the PVC piping; I just made a drawing of basically that for my boyfriend for his upcoming procedure.
But instead of PVC, I was thinking of using a small portion of (flat) 2” diameter rubber tubing which is normally used for draining the jacuzxi or backwashing a pool filter.
Then prior to drinking the Koolaid, insert the bag end into the tubing as much as possible and tape well. Place tubing in toilet and tape to edge.
Before attaching yourself like a balloon to the toilette, find a favorite book and a comfortable chair and WAH-LAH (viola)!
Or for mobility, just attach a bucket with an airtight lid around the neck (ooh-la-la…, the bouquet), and then create a small slit in the lid in which to insert the bottom half of the bag. 😳🤔😬
Good luck!
