I had to be taught self catheterisation something I was so nervous and anxious about.
Harriet and Michelle made me feel at ease and made the full process so much easier than I thought. The after care was brilliant and it just all made it so much less traumatic than I had imagined.

intermittent self-catheterisation

Do you have a similar story to tell?
