Just wanted to mention the
Macmillan toilet card, Tom was offered one when we were @ Clatterbridge last
week. Some cancers and their treatments, including Prostate, affect bladder and
bowel function. The idea is you show the key ring or card to businesses and
shops etc and they will be sympathetic to this sensitive issue without loads of
embarrassing questions. While we're on the subject, a RADAR key costs £4.50
(Disability Rights UK) and gives access to locked public toilets.
This is our experience in the UK. It would be
really helpful if you had information about this kind of support in other
countries, worldwide.
