[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I took care of an elderly man in his last month. There was no smell other than the actual diapers themselves when you changed them. Properly cared for people don't smell. I do think men are a bit easier in some aspects- they can pee into a handheld urinal. Bathe independently- does he have a shower chair and a hand held nozzle? Can he do that himself?[/quote] Thank you. He has the urinal, but also needs diapers for night or when he can't access it quickly enough, I guess. I have a call with his doctor to better understand the health and care situation. I think my parents have been hiding how much he has deteriorated.[/quote]
