Each Day – Better
I’m now in the fifth day since the catheter came out. My urine flow has stayed strong with no signs of blockage. I am so thrilled about that I could just pee in my pants. Oh, I did, whoops.
I still have some leakage problems but it is getting better each day. There are more motions I can do without a leak and more often than not a slight cough or laughter is no longer causing a problem. Part of it is that I have become conscious of the things that bring on the drips so I can purposely tighten muscles. That is often successful.
It is a little embarrassing but I had been wearing depends to bed at night. A really silly sight indeed. No, we didn’t take pictures! I took a chance and went without last night and I was OK.
Every day seems to be a step forward. I never thought I would have such an appreciation for normalcy.
