Let's face it. As we grow older and our bodies start to change (again) we can't help but address the issue of incontinence. Incontinence is basically the inability to 'hold it' until you get to the bathroom. Fortunately, there are many ways to avoid the embarrassing occasions when you just weren't able to make it to the bathroom. Of the most popular methods is wearing adult diapers.
Adult diapers provide for maneuverability and an extra guard against accidents which is very appealing to seniors. Independence is something longed for and sought after with aging citizens and is one of the main selling points of adult diapers. No senior citizen wants to stay at home all day afraid of an outside accident, and so adult diapers offer a viable solution to a very embarrassing situation.
Adult diapers come in multiple sizes, types, and of course prices. For a good adult diaper, prices can easily range about $12.00 each. Most reusable adult diapers can't even stand up to their promises by lasting as long as they say, of course resulting in a higher cost for adult diapers in the long run. Aside from medications, adult diapers can really hurt a senior's budget in the high cost of their incontinence supplies. Usually adult diapers are bought in packs of 12 easily running over $120.00.
Almost more importantly, can you just imagine how embarrassing it is to purchase incontinence supplies? The next time you are at the store, try to take notice of the adult incontinence supplies and where they are located. They are usually located by the pharmacy right next to the feminine hygiene and Trojan condoms. Surrounded by to 'issues with the younger generations' The one thing slightly less embarrassing then an accident with incontinence is the fact that elderly people must buy them in the midst of younger people who just don't understand. To compound the issue, the wrappers are not all the discreet. With flashy colors and large fonts, it quickly becomes apparent to other shoppers that yes the folks have incontinence problems.
To declare incontinence issues just seems to compound the problem that incontinence poses. Luckily, there are websites that offer adult diapers and other incontinence supplies for not only cheaper than retail, but it makes incontinence problems more impersonal and less embarrassing.
Thank you, that’s very interesting information. I need to share with my friends.
