Sorry to go back to basics on new year's Eve - and wishing you all a happy New year as best we all can !
I am hoping it is just the disruption of the holiday period - but fear not - my OH has started to refuse to sit on the toilet - inevitably that has meant a fair number of poo disasters over the last couple of weeks. He can't explain except to say the bathroom is cold - not so, and white - yes. But he is OK about showering in there so the struggle is about the toilet. Right I though we will get a commode which he can use in the bedroom - it arrived today and he viewed it with grave suspicion - refused to sit on it, and yet again pooed while resting after lunch.
I think he tries very hard never to go, as most times he poos while in bed - presumably while he is asleep, or at least dozy. If he kept his pad in that would be less of a problem but he takes often takes his pad 'to keep it clean' .
As you can imagine no amount of discussion is helping solve this one and I am not coping with it at all well - too easily getting upset and cross which is no use at all.
Any ideas would be very appreciated.
