I know it sounds crazy...but I think she must have been saving up for a couple of days. Then with the holiday and dinner ....plus all the activities, she exploded...and I mean that in every sense of the way. I changed her bed and jammies 3 times Saturday early morning, 2 more pairs of pjs, and 2 pairs of pants...and did I mention that my washing machine decided to quit on me? So I kept track and through the day...she managed to have a total of 14 bowel movements...and most of those movements required major clean up. I sure hope we don't have this problem often. Does anyone here have any experiences like this?
I think after the second or third episode I would have given an anti-diarrhea medicine. My husband's geriatrician even recommended those little green pills as a preventative when he was going out. I'm sure it was as unpleasant for her as it was for you, and trying to reduce unpleasantness is one of my goals!
