THANKS, YOU ARE SO RIGHT TOO----WE ARE DEALING WITH PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE PARKINSON THEMSELVES-- BUT RIGHT NOW HE IS INCONTINENT-- WITH AN ALMOST CONSTANT FLOW SO EVEN THE DIAPERS (WHICH WE HAVE AND NOW TOLD NOT TO USE) ARE WET ALL THE TIME AND BED SORES FORM--------I THINK------THE CONDOM CATHATER IS THE ONLY SOLUTION TO KEEP HIM DRY, AT LEAST AT NIGHT AND MAYBE THE ONLY WAY FOR THE DAYTIME HOURS TOO---BUT WE WILL START WITH ONLY USING THEM AT NIGHT (JUST IN CASE THEY ARE RIGHT) AND HOPE IT WORKS, FOR HIM.

DEAR RAY, WHAT DO OTHER PARKINSON MEN AND WOMEN DO ABOUT THE URINE INCONTENANCE PROBLEM DURING THE NIGHT HOURS, IN PARTICULAR---TWO DOCTORS HAVE SAID "NO" TO THE EXTERNAL CATATHER AND ANOTHER DOCTOR AND CAREGIVER HAS SAID "NO" TO DIAPERS, DUE TO PRESSURE SORES, AT NIGHT???? I KNOW HE DOES NOT HAVE A BLADDER INFECTION OR KIDNEY PROBLEM--I KNOW -IT'S PARKINSON AND JUST BEING TOO SLOW TO GET UP TO GET TO HIS CHAIR SIDE URINAL OR THE BATHROOM, AT NIGHT WHEN HIS BRAIN WAKES HIM UP AND TELLS HIM HE NEEDS TO URINATE-----BUT IF THE DOCTORS ARE SAYING "NO" TO EITHER THE EXTERNAL CATATHER OR THE DIAPERS---------WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO DO? WHAT DO YOU HEAR FROM THE OTHER PARKINSON PAITENTS THAT HAVE THIS EVIDENTLY FAIRLY--COMMON PROBLEM WITH LATE TERM PARKINSON? THANKS, MARGARET In a message dated 6/18/2013 11:00:09 P.M.
