There are many people that have trouble with Bladder Control. Whether you have trouble holding it or you just can not go at all there is help out there. For my mother she had a stroke and it effected her ability to have bladder control at all. She was embarrassed to have to admit to it but when she became under my care I had to be told. It is not something that should be she should have been shameful of. I felt so sorry for her trying to be so private about something that effects so many people. After doing research on the subject I found there are so may ways of dealing with this. My mother had an external catheter that she had to use. At first this was difficult for her to except but after I showed her how many people are out there dealing with this problem for different reasons on a daily basis she felt less alone. One day I heard her speaking to her friend about it and I realized even her best friend did not know about her condition. It did my heart good to hear her dealing with instead of denying there was anything wrong. Once she got passed that step she was able to live her life the way she wanted to.
