If I Told You , You Wouldn’t Believe Me

Yes, poop can be celebrated as previous blogs here at mommycity.com have proved, but personally I’ve just about had it with the stinky stuff!

My mom has had diarrhea all day and she can’t control her bowels. She was smelling to high heaven when I came home from grocery shopping. I asked her if she had an accident and she got all offended about it. Ok whatever…she even told Shane I had asked her if she messed her britches. Later she asked me to take her to the bathroom and yep, sure enough she had made a poop in her Depends. I got her changed and she hobbled back out to the living room to watch TV.

The next time she went she made an aweful mess. I offered to give her a bath but she declined. The third time she gave up and said yes. Of course this was right in the middle of me baking the pizza Jack brought home from Papa Murphy’s and setting the table for supper. I had to enlist his help on it and lucky for me he’s always happy to be in the kitchen (hmmmmm wonder how he feels about changing diapers?) I got her bathed and into a clean Depends and warm clothes.

Mom ate good but after she was done and I was cleaning up a bit she hollered for me as Shane was helping her down the hall towards the bathroom….whoops, another mess. This time I got smart and gave her some Imodium D. She layed down and went to sleep but not before declaring her stomach hurt and she thought she still had diarrhea. Shane has been checking on her and doing sniff tests. So far, so good. I stayed up and played Yahoo Pyramids and decided to write this blog. I am going to go fold the clothes and towels in the dryer and get my happy butt to bed.

If the situation doesn’t improve we may need a trip to the ER tomorrow.
