    I didn’t know I could do this until I had to learn how to use a self-cath, and the woman telling me said to start going, then stop, go to put the cath in, and then drain my bladder the rest of the way.

    I said “I… don’t know if I can do that. I’ve never tried.” Turns out I could, and it honestly wasn’t difficult. But over 35 years on the planet, and it never occurred to me to try stopping mid-stream.
