Every few months my wife forgets to remove her knickers when using the toilet. The problem is that she denies the need for cleaning and fresh clothing. I approach the topic gently and tactfully, explaining that I understand it's not nice for her and that she may feel embarrassed. However, despite this I face increasing agitation and then aggression as I try to get her clean, and I end up having to force her into the shower or bathtub to clean away any solids. She often accuses me of getting some kick out of cleaning her up, and I explain that I really wish I didn't have to do it, but that it needs to be done.
On the positive side, she usually calms down quite quickly once back in clean clothes, but it is very stressful and leaves me feeling down.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might be able to handle things better? I find that official advice from books and websites rarely tackles issues as tough as this.
Thanks.
