My mother had incontinence issues. It was mild. The doctor explained basically what she needed. But it was daunting in the aisles sometimes. Wish I had this info before. But at least others have it now!
Medically my issue is under control, but needing to use adult "briefs" etc has been difficult to adjust to, mostly, I think, due to societal induced shame at needing them, especially at my (relatively) young age.
Thank you for your kind and helpful site.I just wish I had discovered it a couple of years ago when this issue started for me.
