My daughter works as a carer for the elderly living in their own homes (part time, shes also in college). Shes got quite a strong stomach and deals with changing pads, washing and dressing clients and helping them on and off the toilet and all that entails. Anyway tonight she was working with another carer who stated if there was any poop or v* involved she could not handle it so would my daughter be prepared to deal with it alone. As it happened this one elderly woman did v* and whilst my daughter held the bowl in front of her (shes bedridden) the other carer fled outside heaving!! She refused to come back in until my daughter reassured her it was all over. I had to laugh cos she sounded just like I would react, or at least almost as bad as Id react.

On a side note yes I am worried that she has something contagious and Im fighting the panic I can feel building inside me. Hopefully I can remain calm and neither my daughter or myself will get ill.
