Bowel incontinence.

In case any of you are taking care of a person with bowel incontinence and didn't know this: I was with my mother at the doctor yesterday discussing her urinary incontinence and the doctor told me that a device my mother had implanted, called Interstim also works well with bowel incontinence. (My mother's device has stopped working - they need to have the internal batteries replaced by a doctor every few years and that's the next step for her).

Anyway, I didn't know that Interstim also works for bowel incontinence and I though those of you who are dealing with that issue might want to check into it. It works by stimulating the sacral nerves - that's the limit of my knowledge and expertise with it.
