(1,385 posts)All the different perspectives. As for me, I have a weird thing that I have come to discover is common with some runners. I am normal in terms of excretion every minute of every day. BUT if I go for a walk, within maybe 20 minutes, my bowels come to life and, well, there we go. I have stopped walking/hiking because of this. At 73, I want to walk and hike. I think maybe this summer I will do what others in this condition have done and get the f***king Depends.
I don't see this being like Donnie. The very second I got back to any kind of facility, I would clean up and lose the Depends. But he just sits there in his own shit with no sense of hygiene or thought of others around him at all. It's very different from any senior in this position. He seems to be proud of stinking up a room.
