Eddie is becoming incontinent and blaming it all on the government. Who knows why? Sometimes you just have to laugh.
And isn't it interesting that the things you worry about very often turn out to be nothing. I didn't know how I was going to get him to wear Depends, but I just brought some home and he put them right on. One more milestone.... Rob |

Well, I know that Mr. Bush has gotten into the workings of our personal lives from morning to night and thensome, but I was kinda hoping he'd at LEAST keep out of the bathroom. One more hope dashed to bits! ~~~~~ "When someone is in your heart, they're never truly gone. They can come back to you, even at unlikely times" -- Posey Benetto in Mitch Albom's "for one more day" |

Dear Rob, Better for Eddie to blame the "government" than to blame you. Somebody's got to be the scapegoat. LOL Peace, Marcie Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible. St. Francis of Assisi |

Too funny! Rob, my husband also just put them on! I was amazed! My husband only blames the government because he cannot drive. He says he is going to drive to just show them. He says they will put him in jail and that is really good because then they will have to pay to bury him!

Thanks, guys - you've all made me smile.
TB - how funny, Eddie also threatens to drive and talks about going to jail. Weird, huh? |

Hi Rob,
I was also nervous presenting Depends to MIL, when she became incontinent here, on her last visit. I did not discuss them before hand. I just brought them home, and showed them to her, all excited-like. Thank goodness they had a tiny ruffle around them. She thought they were "darling", and that I should get myself some, too! She always does like getting "gifts". maebee1@comcast.net (former caregiver of MIL) "Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unaware." Heb 13:2 |

Isn't that strange Rob! LOL!
Maebee, too cute!! Trouble and the Grace to bear it, come in the same package. |

Well, during the night last night my husband started coughing. We have all had colds. He told me that when he eats two meals I fix, it gives him a cold! So, I guess I'll serve kleenex with every meal! LOL!

Lots of smiles from these posts. Too cute!

Who'd believe it? He actually likes the Depends - says they're cushy for the tushy. He's extremely thin and has no padding - well, now he does!

I was taking care of a confused patient once, and she had soiled herself. The aide and I were giving her a bed bath, and she was slapping us and clawing at us and screaming, and I was going slow and explaining, but to no avail. I said "We have to clean you up, you've got poop there", and she demanded to know "Well, WHO PUT IT THERE?" and refused to believe it was her own! I had to hold my laughter until we left the room, she would have been so insulted.

IRC that was funny.. but has happened so often around here.. for the life of BF's Mom she can't understand who wets her bed EVERY NIGHT..
she has even asked if it was raining!!!!! Must have been the only way her bed could have gotten wet... Have even been told we should have moved her bed from the barn (????) before the rain started.. First of all we live in a large subdivision in the middle of the city, where the heck am I gonna find a barn??? That could be part of the sleeping problems that we are having.. all those Cows and Pigs keeping her up at night!!!!!!! *********************************** "The greatness comes not when things go always good for you.

TB: If you serve Kleenex with every meal...does that count as extra fiber??!! lol. Chris, cln051784@hotmail.com, PS. 94: 17-19 If I should say my foot has slipped, your love O Lord supported me.
