Have a 68 yr old cousin; her mom passed in March (she was 100) and family forced her from house into a senior apartment. Now I hear
she is incontinent.
My question on sizing of Depends... I only see Large/xLarge and it says XL will fit 170-300 lbs; she's about 5'5" but I have to guess at about
190. Does anyone know if the XL really go that big?
Does anyone know the best place to buy? I was thinking amazon.. I am in NJ she is in NY so I'd just ship.. don't plan on bringing them out... any other cheaper suggestions?
thanks 1|1|I have bo idea if the xl go to that size, you could call depends and ask them. Sometimes walgreens and cvs have deals on them, and can get them pretty reasonable.|HONEY11|HONEY1@AMERITECH.NET|22:42:19|07/31/2012|
o I don't buy them that often, but when I can get them cheap or free I donate them as well as samples I get in the mail.

be a shame to buy a bunch and not fit her my mom took a large she weighted about 160 and abut 5'5 but hated tight things,she would only wear the panties type don't know if you were talking about thoses or others,she liked the Tena,s better then the depends they all cost about the same, I would get coupons off the coupon board for her you might also go to the Tena web site I have gotten her samples there too.I would also get her the tena pads to use in her drawers she had gotten really bad before she died hth Linda 3|1|yes....read inside..|Skaytes|skaytez@gmail.com|06:55:02|08/01/2012|
Daughter has to wear Depends due to incontinence when she has seizures. Better to be safe than sorry as she doesn't want to be embarassed if it happened in public or around other people etc. Depends and even the generic ones we get all seem to run true to size in fitting. Daughter is a 'pear' shape and they fit her fine.
If that person has medicaid..not sure with medicare...but Medicaid will pay for the Depends..does for my daughter luckily. Just needs a script from the Dr. to get them.
4|2|THANK YOU-- I think she might be on Medicaid... |sneakers1234|ross417@msn.com|19:24:10|08/01/2012|
Got something good? make an offer... let's trade!! 5|3|You are very welcome. Just a FYI for anyone ...|Skaytes|skaytez@gmail.com|06:49:11|08/02/2012|
Medicaid also covers for diapers for my handicapped daughter as well. Again script is needed and she can't do the generic due to allergies but gets Huggies each month. Is a lifesaver as on our limited income don't know how I could pay for all of them. They do NOT pay for the wipes...like baby wipes. Those I have to purchase for her but I am certainly OK with that! :)
