[quote=Anonymous]My Dad is 91 and doesn't shower often (about every ten days). He doesn't really smell bad - I think he is pretty meticulous about changing his clothes, and applying deodorant/antiperspirant, brushing his teeth, etc. He won't admit it, but I'm sure he is a. afraid of falling and b. gets cold so easily that getting out of the shower and drying off is torture. I don't have any advice for you, just wanted to say that it's not that out of the ordinary for an older person to have hygiene issues.[/quote]
