RE: I Came And Went To The Bathroom All By Myself And I Will Not Do It Again 🚶🏼♂️🚽😢
Unfortunately, I kind of relate to your Mt.Everest toilet story. About 7 years ago, I gave birth to my son. He was so big that I had to get a C-section surgery. I'm all by myself here in Korea and have absolutely no help. Well, with a C-Section surgery, a doctor cuts seven layers into your lower stomach area to get the baby out. The first night was okay because I was really drugged and I had a catheter in me, but a day or two later, they took the catheter out and I found myself having to get up and go to the bathroom instead of using tubes. I actually had to get up out of the bed and walk to the toilet. If I coughed, if I even sneezed the slightest little sneeze, the stitches would rip my skin and it was very painful. Anyway to make a long story short, it took about 3 hours for me to get to the toilet and back. I inched my way slowly but surely. And afterwards I promised myself that I would never do that again. I think that was the worst experience I've ever had in my life. I know this doesn't make you feel any better but at least you know that I completely understand you and how you're feeling when it comes to using the restroom on your own.

Wow that is quite an ordeal @gungho you should have at least one accompaniment with you there at that time to help you out.
Yes I am just very careful on my step if I can call it a step with my feet because they joints in them are deteriorated already plus I have to contend with my breathlessness issue too.
I don't think I could not do that again in the following days, it is just I am newly dialyzed and got an ease from extra water that was unloaded from my body. But I am just really wanting to use the toilet badly because I could not hold it any longer.
Well, at the time, I had my husband, but he doesn't have a car, and the hospital was too far to walk to. He had to take a bus every time. He was only able to come to me around 8~10pm.
Maybe you could get a special portable toilet next to your bed for emergencies. Did you tell your mom about the incident?
