What's so special about FeelClean Technology™?

Simply put, it is created for a more comfortable cathing experience. By integrating the hydrophilic properties within the catheter itself, FeelClean Technology eliminates the sticky coating that can make traditional catheters damage the urethra.

You are never too young to do something amazing, and Eli has proven that time and again. From cathing to basketball captain, Eli (and Grammy) share how they've improved their community through sports and camaraderie.

If you want to know how something can be done, talk to Eli. He and his grandmother, Ann Guillotte, (aka Grammy), saw the need for a wheelchair basketball team in their home state. This duo made it happen.

“Me and Grammy were sitting there one day watching TV and I saw grown-ups playing basketball, and I thought hey, I’d really like to do this!” says Eli with supreme confidence.

Like many born with spina bifida, Eli uses catheters. It is on his wish list to be able to catheterize himself, which Ann also hopes to see.

The fact that Richard is a C-5 quadriplegic means that holding a paintbrush might be his first challenge.

“I found that sticking the paintbrush handle into my regular wheelchair gloves worked pretty well. I know that some people hold the paintbrush in their mouths, but I like to use charcoal, and that wouldn’t work too well. It takes some patience and time, but more so, it takes getting out and doing things. Once you are actually experiencing it, you’ll find it really isn’t that different from it was before. When accidents happen, you just make it funny! Why trip over it? You just laugh, just make it funny.”

Thanks to Richard for sharing his art with the world and his inspiring message of overcoming adversity.

Do you know the difference between chronic and acute urine retention?
Chronic retention often develops slowly and may go unnoticed until it causes complications, whereas acute retention occurs suddenly and can be extremely painful.

Both can be linked to an enlarged prostate, but the good news is that treatment options are available.

How important is it to stay hydrated?
Do you always need to keep track of input and output?
Will drinking less help you catherterise less?

Whether you're new to self cathing or have been cathing for some time, at no point should you drastically alter your daily intake of fluids. The body will continuously produce urine as you eat and drink, a process that slows during sleep, so we make the most urine during the waking hours.
