If you don't mind me asking, why do you use the toileting harness? You've
probably said why before, but I don't read all of the messages on the list.
Just curious.

I get the bags from store supply guy.
The t shirt bags last me a year.
I think I paid something like $42 then shipping.
Just some thoughts.
I like them, sense I use the toileting harness.
Really works out well.
