My husband suffers from vascular dementia & alzheimers diagnosed in 2020.
He wears incontinence pants but still manages to soak his trousers whilst assuring me he’s completely dry so I secretly check every night.
Last night the same. His trousers were damp so I took them for washing. This morning I turned them inside out to put them in the machine & found them full of 💩. My sense of smell is non existent at the moment due to hay fever otherwise I would have smelt it! My husband must have known he had pooed but didn’t say a word. We have had incidents in the past re poo but usually due to him having made a mess in the loo & attempted to clear up.
This is a long whinge but I am feeling rather queasy & depressed this morning!
How do you deal with someone who pretends there is no problem in this situation? Wee is bad enough but poo is another thing entirely!
