For Immediate Release

I wish to thank everyone for the encouragement, support and love you’ve shared with me since my tooth extraction last week. I have some additional news regarding my health.

Yesterday, I began experiencing complications with my sphincter, the band of muscle that controls my piddling. Prior to last week’s surgery, I had never wet the carpet in my sleep. During the surgery, I received a substantial amount of fluid to ensure I remained hydrated, and while recovering that evening, I had an accident in my sleep – a normal occurrence given the amount of fluid I received and not necessarily indicative of a larger problem. My recovery progressed normally for five days with no further accidents until the dam burst yesterday. Now if I doze off, I leak.

I hope that by speaking up I will help other young, spayed females to confront the stigma associated with this embarrassing condition and get treatment. I will be consulting with my medical team on Friday to determine what my options are and will keep you informed. Again, thank you for your support and love.
