Notes About The Poem

Desperately Leaking Susan Tm

Poor Susan has got a weak bladder
Incontinence made her get sadder
She now wears Depends™
They’re her new “best friends”
And Susan just couldn’t be gladder!

I can't fathom sitting in public knowing you have just peed into a diaper. Geeez. Wouldn't it smell??

GREAT job, Jan. I got called up for jury duty two years ago and put on the card that I had a small bladder (but they paid no mind and called me anyway) but luckily the trial got cancelled. I talked to my doctor since then and he says he will write a note for me if I get called again. I can't even sit through most movies. How would I get through a trial? haha

December 21, 2020 at 3:57 PM

oh heck a small bladder that must be a real inconvenience for you Andrea!:-( hugs jan xx
