Mum had to keep her catheter in until she has a TWOC in 7-14 days .

Has anyone had a TWOC and what does it entail .

Also Mum has come hime in a nightie without underwear . Can she wear underwear as she doesn’t want to live in nightwear .

thanks 

  • Hi AnnemarieH,

     I did not have mine fitted until I had my operation, so I cannot help you there, as I was in hospital I was in pyjamas a friend of mine had one fitted and he was able to wear clothes maybe someone else might to able to give you more information, take care I am so glad your mother has someone to help her with all the questions you will both have.

  • Thanks at the moment she is in her nightie but would like to see if she can get dressed in a couple of days . She can have a shower tomorrow which should be fun 

  • Your mum will feel so much better once she can shower. I couldn’t have one for ages as i had two large  wounds which had to be kept dry. That first shower was amazing, I was in hospital altogether for 24 days as I kept testing positive for covid. As my husband is immunosuppressed we couldn’t risk it until I had the all clear. Hope your mum enjoys her shower and starts out on her recovery journey xx
