Travelling checklist

The Australian Continence Society has put together this excellent travel checklist.  It's worth taking note of well before you depart on a trip. We thank them for compiling this very useful information.

Travel can be one of the joys of life - and sometimes a necessity - but if you are coping with a bladder control problem or soiling, it can be an anxious time. Planning ahead will help prevent embarrassment and hassles and make your trip so much more enjoyable. Here's the checklist ....>

Things to pack when you travel

I've heard people talk about what you need to take when travelling overseas, but very often they preface their comments with, "Of course it depends on where you will be travelling."  Then they rattle off cautions for India, China and many other Asian countries.

Well I can tell you I have travelled in China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia and some Pacific islands, I've eaten an amazing variety of foods, but I have never had a dysentery attack like the one I experienced recently at Surfers Paradise, Queensland.

That was a first for me and I hope never again.  Now, what has this to do with dryfella?  Guess what?  I had to buy some pull ups from the nearby pharmacy and they were fantastic.  ..... >

Dealing With Urges

We don't identify our enquirers or customers, but being able to read about some actual enquiries may be helpful for others' education.  Here's an enquiry that may ring bells for you.

ATTENDS could work quite well here.

There are a couple of things that I can comment on here. .... >

The dryfellas Blog

This is a new activity for us.  We've heard about Blogs, but have never had a reason to explore how to create one let alone get involved in posting to our own Blog.  But here we are.

The main purpose of this Blog is to open up discussion around a very sensitive subject for men - light bladder leakage - or the more serious - incontinence.  While the Blog will not be 100% on this subject,we certainly want to create a forum where we can share information on bladder leakage management and others can share their experience so men can open up a little in confidence. ..>
