She's so brave and lovely. I became incontinent several years ago. It was hard to accept at first. Seeing her is an inspiration.

She's a very beautiful lady and she does not let her incontinence bother her I give her thumbs up on that can you go for it

[@danielcampbell7973]

What a remarkable story. Doesn't seem that bad. I don't see her saying she has to wear diapers or anything.

[@connerstone739]

I feel so sorry for this lovely girl strong strong and life on

[@klaasNL]

It's great that she's still a model. She is beautiful to watch. Thinly dressed on stage with a very sensitive bladder is already a big risk. You have to empty your bladder with something like that and immediately do a round around the stage. I have had an overactive bladder since childhood. of the adult diapers I didn't know it existed until I discovered it when I was 18 so every time I peed my pants I was also visibly wet. That caused, for example, to smell like urine in high school. I didn't discover them until I finished school and started wearing them for the first time when I was 18. had quickly discovered that a diaper is much cleaner than wearing nothing if you have an overactive bladder. Even if you know that you have peed once, you can still walk around with a dry feeling.

[@petecunnien5368]

What an Awesome story and fight!! It’s so hard to overcome the stigma and the facts of Incontinence and how it affects you every day!!

[@ethanmerchant7952]

God bless you/u and I will keep you/u in my prayers and hope that you'll get to feeling better soon and you're very welcome!

[@The_Turbo_Charged]

Wearing a diaper is not bad at all, specially if your wearing the abdl diapers, they are way more comfy than anything

[@mattystorm580]

Can you fucking not

[@The_Turbo_Charged]

@@mattystorm580 can you fuckin not comment, maybe?

[@jvmiller1995]

Why the hell do you people have to bring up AB products. I have Been bladder incontinence near my entire life and the last 4 years having fecal incontinence more and more. The only people buying AD/DL products are just that. I would rather someone see poop run out of pants in public than wear a diaper that has baby dinosaurs or looks like it is for a toddler. What a joke! Just because we have to use incontinence products does not makes us anything like a baby no matter how much you want it to be the case. Why make such a serious issue into such a damn joke? I guess I do not get it

[@lydericmaes6278]

Hi there ! You are really cuuute ! 🥰

[@chrish5791]

Who would vote thumbs down for this lovely girl facing a condition not of her making? What oafs they must be.

[@JoshuaBagwell]

Odd i cannont eat food without a drink to help it go down never had surgery or asked dr.s why

[@99Getrdone]

She is Beautiful

[@MH5XXXX]

Dispite her weight lifting i would bet that is helping her problem. Yes folks with a worse version have to use diapers but i would bet she uses something similar when not on the job and at home.

[@happy10111]

ABDL diapers need to be sold in major shopping centre's incontinence is more common then people think

[@stevesutherland1580]

I have a problem but I would rather not eat. And if I do eat it is after I get home from work. And if I know I need to go out somewhere I will not eat until I get home. I had stomach problems since I was young but I started having problems controlling my self when I was in my twenties and the first doctor my doctor send me to was Dr. WILLIAMS and he is retired now but he has diagnose me with Barrett's Esophagus and I B S. But I've seen a lot of doctors and some say I do have Barrett's Esophagus and some say I don't. But I know I get a lot of stomach pain and I also get a lot of burning below my sternum and it moves up to my throat and I have a problem sleeping because of it. And sometimes I wake up because it makes me cough and that even burns. But my biggest fear is food because I'm afraid to eat and go out because you never know when you will have an explosion because you don't have no control of it you get severe cramps and it's like diarrhea it just comes out without any control. No matter what you do you don't have time to do anything it just squirts out no matter how hard you try to hold it back. So I try to keep my stomach empty and I can go three or four days without eating and I refuse to eat and go out just because you don't know if you will have a problem or not and it's not a good feeling to go around in a wet and brown stain in the back of your pants or running down your legs. Also I get sick sometimes and that is another problem because you may have it coming out of both ends and I hate throwing up. So I will just keep doing what I'm doing because I don't have taste and I don't even know if food is good or bad half of the time. I'm worried if others will end up with a eating disorder because I do have a eating disorder and I know I do. And I'm way under weight but I would rather have a eating disorder than going out in public and inference my self. I believe most of my problems happen when I was young because I have been through some trauma when I was young but that is something I would rather not talk about. Because I believe something is better kept to yourself but I do have several scars and even these scars I don't like taking about but some of these scars are easy to hide.

[@jvmiller1995]

I do not know how old you are but a lot as times as we get older our prospective change. Itis a medical issue and accepting it as such might make you feel better physically and mentally. I have gastroparesis too and it prevents me from eating normal too. But I stopped caring what others thought long time ago. You should speak to a doctor. You can do more than just use diapers. You can train your colon to move ny using enemas and laxatives you can even get a ostomy bag. They all sound bad but they could all change your life. Do not let a disease control your health over what soe stranger in the corner of the room might think if you do not make the restroom. I have had to wear absorbent products my entire adult life. I accepted it a long time ago and do not even own regular underwear. You can take a eternal deodorizer that will block the smell if you was to mess. I wear baggy pants a size to big with a stretchable belt to hold them up tight. I am in a overnight diaper right at the moment and will be in pull up or diaper tomorrow after my shower. You do not make fun of people using glasses or a wheelchair. This is not your fault.

i just let go

[@messylaura]

sounds like my perfect gal

[@charlottesplayground1096]

if you dont need thick pads or actual diapers its prob not that bad.

[@Fetishmale]

Some people dealing with incontinence, sometimes use a catheter, semi permanent or several times a day to drain the bladder, to get rid of urine before peeing themself, i don´t know about you, but it does sounds that fun to be on a constant timer. Not even talking about her bowl incontinence = poo, i dont know about you, but thats sounds kind of bad...

[@jamesjarvis931]

It's great to see that not everyone uses a diaper to blow themselves.😝

She was being filmed... for this permanent video online... smh

[@kellwng]

must not be that bad try having to wear diapers. She is lifting weights and in public view so not sure she has a very big problem.

[@charlottesplayground1096]

Ye she is not even wearing a diaper or something mayb a small pad or anal tampon or something of that nature and if you can show off in a bikini you dont have it that bad i gues. Just trying to get some attention it seems. I cant get around wearing them. I need them at night and when a toilet is hard to reach like in a themepark, zoo etc.

[@kellwng]

@@charlottesplayground1096 I have to wear diapers to help with the embarrassment

[@Squirrelnut77]

I suffer with major incontinence issues from being paralyzed. I know after I cath (straight catheter) I have a couple of hours after I’ve emptied my bladder where I don’t really have to worry about any accidents if I’m managing my fluid intake. I don’t have many problems with my bowels but that because I manage it with my bowel program. You can train your body to function on schedule with proper discipline and consistency. You can also use enemas or suppositories to ensure that you’ve emptied your lower colon or whatever and overtime you’ll know how your body behaves and reacts and what kind of time frame you have where you’re at low or no risk for accidents. It’s all about diet, discipline and consistency.

Jesus is God & He loves you Jesus will soon be seen by all men, women, and children up in the clouds. Jesus is returning now! Believe and be saved. Exodus 3:14 (God speaking) And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. John 8:58 (Jesus speaking) Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. John 10:30 (Jesus speaking) I and my Father are one. Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, *The everlasting Father,* The Prince of Peace. Matthew 1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, *God with us.* John 1:1 & 14 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 14 And the Word was made flesh (Lord Jesus), and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John 8:24 (Jesus speaking) I said therefore unto you that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he ye shall die in your sins. John 14:9 (Jesus speaking) Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father? Hebrews 1:1-3, & 8 (God calls His Son "O God" because Jesus IS God in the flesh) 1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; 3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; 8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. 1 John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. Titus 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Revelation 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; *and every eye shall see him,* and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. Isaiah 44:6 (God speaking) Thus saith the LORD the King .of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. Revelation 1:8 (Jesus speaking) I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, *the Almighty.* Revelation 22:13 (Jesus speaking) I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. --- There Are None Righteous / How To Be Saved Romans 3:10 & 23 10 As it is written There is none righteous, no, not one: 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Luke 5:31-32 (Jesus speaking) 31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick. 32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. 1 Peter 3:18 (The word “quicken” means “to make alive”) For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but quickened by the Spirit: Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Ephesians 2:8-9 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works lest any man should boast.
