My husband suffers with Alzheimer's and because he is on diuretics seems to spend all day weeing. I buy Tesco incontinence pants, £8 for 10. They are excellent and help to keep him dry. I also have we bottles everywhere so that he can go when the urgency occurs. We have had a couple of instances where he has had an urgent need to poo and managed to contain it because of him wearing the pants. I dread hospital and dental appointments as toilets are few and far between. I must take advice and put together an emergency kit so that we will have the means to clean him if the worse should happen. One tip I would like to pass on, all drinks my husband has I make using water that has been infused with fresh rosemary and sage sprigs. It certainly seems to help with 'in the moment' memory
