Jamies aren't really the best idea anyway, since you don't know how long you'll need the catheter.. I had to go home with mine.

Also, every time I moved from my bed to walk, stand, sit or anything, I would need a complete change of clothes.. this is not at all a common problem, as far as I can tell, I've not seen this problem with anyone else that has posted, but as far as I'm concerned, let them do the laundry.. I wore two johnny's when I got up..one frontwards and one backwards as a 'robe'.

(Oh.. I guess I didn't explain the need for the frequent changes of clothing.. suffice it to say it is gross.. and had to do with lap sites that didn't exactly close up as is normally the case.. I ended up needing stitches)
