With my urinary incontinence I have to wear some type of protection 24/7, then there are days like today that I stay dry all day, and have to use a catheter to “get things flowing again”. I use a foley & will let it in for a couple days. It isn’t something I like to do due to UTIs & being able to hide it at work, but at least I can go to bed in a really thin diaper & wake up dry in the morning - gotta look at the positives!

I loved the water growing up and since my incontinence started, it took until just last year to find a product that I was comfortable wearing when swimming. But I looked until I found it, and glad that product is available. It is all about making the best of it.

I can't believe this has gone on this long. So I don't have much hope of getting a tech job, but I saw an educational job that I thought might be really good. It would have been working at a university supporting high school students who are taking college classes. I did a mock interview with a friend and prepared extensively. It was at the university that I graduated from. I was very excited...
