Hi everyone, hope you are doing well! We have had a rough day today. We started off first thing this morning with a #1 and #2 accident before we could get dad out of bed. We got him on the potty to finish and got the soiled clothes sheets and covers off and had to go ahead and do his bath first thing. We finally got him settled and within a couple of hours his pants were soaked again. He said he was reaching for the urinal and just went. We decided it best to put a pull-up on but he still wanted the freedom to use the urinal so we cut the sides and taped it. Then he laid down for his nap and before he could get up he had another accident and since the pull up had been altered his pants and the pad under him was soaked again. We down have what more resembles a diaper on him that is meant to be fastened and unfastened. This is a new problem we are facing and I was curious if others are having or have had these issues. The other problem we are having is a way for him to notify us in the middle of the night if there is a issue. We have a monitor over his bed but his voice is too weak. I also got a wireless doorbell and mounted the button to the bed rail but he said he can no longer get his hand/arm over there to push the button. Any ideas folks?
