Toilet Access - WCW18

[incon1982]

When you have incontinence of any type, being able to use a clean and safe toilet is critical. Toilets need to be able to accommodate all of us, too - not just some of us. #ChangingPlaces is an organization working globally to create accessible toilet facilities, and is an organization that we can all support. And it's up to all of us to educate architects, city planners, and places that we visit (theatres, restaurants, auditoriums, sports arenas, national parks, etc.) about the importance of clean and safe toilet facilities. If we make enough noise and sense - things can and do change! #WCW18

Never been a fan of public restrooms, but now the incontinence makes it harder to use one. Because we don't "Look" disabled, waiting for the handicapped stall is ... well, the word to be used is embarrassing

Agree. And I think the men have an especially difficult time because they have fewer stalls to begin with, and then they often have no trash cans like in the ladies.

More thought, care, and upkeep is needed for bathrooms everywhere!!

These people are doing great work and really making a difference. I especially have seen some great improvements taking place because of their advocacy in Wisconsin.

i WEAR PLASTIC ADULT DIAPERS ALL THE TIME FOR BOWEL AND BLADDER LOSS. When I soil at home at night, I can just pull down brief and wash myself with the shower. Also when I want to change a wet diaper at work I can apply a new one standing. I can do this in an airplane bathroom too. I roll up and throw away the used diaper in the trashcan. sometimes peopel see me and myself naked. I don't care. I pull up gary pants and pants and that's it. I do this at home too. I change 4 diapers per day like this.
