...showers are a pain in that ass. First ya gotta adjust the water and it won't stay adjusted. It's either too hot or too cold all the time. Then ya gotta soap up and generally by that time we have discovered that there is no soap in the ahower. Then there is always some place or another ya can't reach to soap up and if ya do, ya can't get in there with water to wash the soap off. It's always something with that shower thingy.

...tell ya another thing we will do is not change clothes. Other than when mz ribit makes me go work in the yard I do very little other than watch tv and share my brilliance with the world via the internet. I change my T-shirt and underwear and socks daily, but I can make a pair of jeans last a week. Truth is Jeans don't relly get comfortable til about day three.

I have already told my family that I want to go to one of them personal care homes when I get to the pooping, peeing and drooling part of my life.

...getting old folks to do anything good for them isn't gonna work, because we don't care anymore. Our bodies and minds have betrayed us. We used to RULE THE WORLD but now we can't rule our own bladder. It is a sad state of affairs and the only thing that will get ya thru it is a strong faith and a good sense of humor.

hear ya ribit !

Don;t know how much longer I have with my father before that happens.

As it is, he currently does not drink, and he hates to get a shower. Not a good combination...

Orange urine and he can;t control his bladder too well so he soaks and over fills his depends.

NOW how do I get him to remember to change them twice a day???
AND to drink the water/gatorade I filled his refrigerator with ????

WHY do old people with dementia hate to take showers??

Pulling my hair out here...
