INCONTINENT HAS TAKEN ON A WHOLE NEW MEANING TO ME NOW. AT FIRST I DIDN'T THINK I COULD DO THE THINGS SHE NEEDED, AS I HAVE A SERIOUS GAG REFLEX...STRUGGLED WITH CHANGING THE DIAPERS OF MY BELOVED CHILDREN. IT WAS MY 24 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WHO CARED FOR HER THE FIRST COUPLE OF DAYS POST SURGERY AND RECALLED FINDING HER GRAM UP TO HER KNEES IN...WELL, YOU CAN IMAGINE. MY DAUGHTER PUT ON RUBBER GLOVES, CLEANED UP HER GRAM, CHANGED HER BEDDING, WASHED THE FLOOR, SCRUBBED THE BATHROOM DOWN, PRODUCED WARM CLEAN P.J.S FOR HER BEST GRAM AND TUCKED HER INTO BED. GRAM DOSED FOR A FEW MINUTES AS THE ENTIRE ORDEAL HAD BEEN SO TRAUMATIC. SHE WOKE UP TO FIND MY SWEET DAUGHTER CRAWLING IN UNDER THE COVERS WITH HER TO RUB HER BACK UNTIL SHE COULD DRIFT OFF TO SLEEP. IN TELLING ME OF HER EXPERIENCE WITH HER GRAM, SHE LOOKED AT ME AND SAID..."MOM, THERE IS A GIFT HERE FOR YOU, DON'T MISS IT". I WILL BE THANKFUL FOR THE OPPORTUNITIES TO CARE FOR HER WITH LOVE AND TENDERNESS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.
