His nurse came in to check on him about an hour after he had fell a sleep. She turned off the T.V., the light, and pulled the blanket up half way to Toby. She did a quick diaper check and left the door cracked open half way walking back to the desk. Once she sat down, she checked to see if any other patient's had buzzed for needing help and talked to the other nurse.
“You know Toby is the fourth car accident patient we've had today. Is that normal?” Nurse Sally asked.

“No it's not. I don't remember having this many in one day.”

It was around 1:00 in the morning and they heard yelling from Toby's room and his nurse went running. She ran in saw him sitting up in bed shaking looking around. Toby jumped when she went to put her paws on him.

“Shh Toby it's me.” Nurse Katie.

“Wha- what happened? Where am I?” Toby asked shaking

“You're in the hospital, remember? You were in a car accident.”

Toby laid down hugging his stuff animal breathing slow looking at his broken arm trying to raise it slowly. He closed his eye's breathing slowly trying to get his heart rate down as the Dr. came running short time later. He saw Katie had it under control but did walk over to check to see was ok.

“Toby? You ok?”

Toby opened his eye's and saw his Dr. standing over him with his paw on his head. He nodded slowly with a sadden look on his face.

“Can I please get something to help me fall back a sleep?” Toby asked rubbing his eye's.

“Yes you can. Katie, can you get something?”

“Yes Dr. be right back.”

Toby pressed the button to help him sit up as Katie soon returned. She handed him the small cup of two pills and a small cup of water. After taking it and laid down again and in ten minutes he was out and sleeping. Nurse Katie came back to check on him to changed his diaper and saw he had messed in his sleep. Once he was changed she made note of it. Before leaving she did other checks and went back to her desk.

The sun beamed through the shades to Toby's room but he was still sound a sleep. It was 9:45 and his mom walked in and saw him still sleeping. She walked over and kissed his head softly rubbing his head. Ashley heard a knock on the door and looked up. It was a different doctor holding his information.

“Good morning and how are we doing?”

“I'm doing good. Do you know if he will be able to go home today?” Ashley asked holding Toby's paw.

“Well everything looks to be ok. He did messed himself last night in his sleep and it may happen every once in a while. His injuries are slowly getting better. I would say once he wakes up and gets moving, he can go home.”

Ashley thanked him as he walked out and she rubbed his head and kissed him again. She couldn't help but to pull up his gown to see if he was wet and sure enough he was. The last time she remembered changing his diaper was when he was three and half.

Growing up Toby always put up a fight to get potty trained until his was forced by his dad. His dad was abusive to him and his mom until she could no longer take it. She had a restraining order put on him and moved across country to start a new life. There were times where Toby did wet the bed and was put into night pants. He finally grew out of it at eight years old.

Ashley saw a nurse walked in smiling asking how she was this morning.

“I'm doing good and how are you?” Ashley asked.

“I'm doing just fine.” The nurse said smiling.

The nurse checked Toby's diaper and was about to change it when Ashley asked if she could help since she may have to change him and needs help. The nurse didn't see no problem with it reaching for diapers, wipes, and powder.

“Ok, it's just like changing a baby but a bigger diaper and sometimes bigger messes. Make sure you have plenty of room and untap all four taps wiping the private area and his bottom when you pick his legs up or have him roll over.”

Part way through the change Toby woke up slowly rubbing his eyes and saw his mom with the nurse and couldn't make out what was happening. After rubbing his eye's more focusing and saw his mom was helping change his diaper.

“M-mom?”

“Oh morning sweety.”

Toby turned bright red and couldn't believe his mom was helping. He knew she was going to have to help before he was able to walk or do anything on his own.

“Once all the urine or mess is off, open the diaper with the taps in the back of course. Slide it under him and sprinkle some powder on pulling it up. Tap one side, then opposite side and so on. Make sure it's not on to tight or to lose and he's all set.”

The Dr. walked in with discharge papers and a wheel chair. Toby was happy and hopped it was for him to leave. He walked over pulling the table to Toby for him to sign some paper works so he will be able to leave. His mom pulled some clothes out of a back pack. Toby was done signing paper work and slowly moved to have his legs hang off the bed. His mom walked over with sweat pants with buttons down the side so putting them on would be easy. He did have a little trouble putting his shirt on but managed to get it on.

They gathered everything up and helped Toby in the wheel chair and pushed him off the the front doors. The did give them a couple dozen of diapers until they can go to a pharmacy to buy some better brands that could hold more. Toby got in the car with a little struggle still holding on to his stuff animal. They pulled out of the parking lot and drove off to the pharmacy about ten minutes away. Ashley pulled in the parking lot and Toby tried to get out and was struggling a little. His mom came running around the other side to help him.

A nice old man opened the door as he was leaving to help Toby in and he thanked him. Once in they made their way to the incontinent sections looking at the different brands they had to offer.

“Hello, can I help you guys with anything?” A young girl husky asked walking up.

“Yeah um. Wh-” Toby paused and looked at who it was.

“Toby?” Sara asked stunned.

Sara was a girl that hung out with Toby in high school but haven't seen each other since they graduated. He was frozen and couldn't move. He didn't know what to say.

“What in the world happened to you?” Sara asked walking closer.

“I was in a car accident a few days ago.” Toby said.

“That was you're car? The police said you were very lucky that you made it out a live.” Sara said looking at his injuries.

“Yeah, I just haven't seen my car yet. But judging by the sounds of it, it's totaled.

“So what can I help you with?”

“I umm, need some adult diapers.” Toby said shyly.
Sara was stunned but couldn't believe it.

“Was the accident that bad?” Sara asked worried.

“It's left me bladder incontinent. I need something that will um, hold a lot of wetting because it's also a night time thing.”

Toby's mom watched as they talked but was also reading packages.

“I would say for night time the Tranquility and for day time I would go with the Molicare.” Sara said grabbing the packages.

Ashley grabbed three packages of each one and brought them up to the register along with powder and few packs of wipes. Sara rung up everything and gave them the total. She helped them out to the car and helped Toby in the car. She gave him his number in case they needed anything from the store. He said good-bye and thanked her for her help. They drove home and his mom could tell he was upset by this. She put her paw on his head rubbing it and he looked over smiling a little.

They arrived home and Ashley first helped Toby in the house and into his room on his bed getting him comfy. She walked back out and grabbed the bags walking back inside. Toby knew this was it for his boxers and watched as his mom toke them all out of the dresser as she opened the packs of diapers placing them in his top dresser. She also opened the other two putting the stacks on top of his dresser next to his powder and wipes. She walked over kissing his head.

“I love you no matter what sweety.”

She walked out of his room letting him rest as she got dinner ready. Toby got up slowly hobbling to his dresser and opened it. He couldn't help but just stare at the diapers. Something he once loved to wear for fun, now has to wear for a reason. He can't help but smile now and will be able to wear with out having to keep it a secret.
