    Handsfree toileting

    My hands are almost useless now but thanks to an amazing product I am still able to completely take care of my own toileting (as long as I get help with some of my clothing). It's called a Toto Washlet. I'm not going into detail here cause it is such a personal topic but one thing I will say...

    Thanks Wow - thank you for helping me make an informed decision. I'll go to the clinic. I didn't realize what a good resource the clinic will be for me. I thought it would be just another doctors appointment! I'm glad you guys are here. Deb (Happy Thanksgiving Al)
