One of my eleventh birthday presents was permission to go to the movies. I brought a case of ringworm home. My family doctor sent me to a radiologist, who blasted the ringworm with powerful radiation. I lost all my scalp hair, my eyebrows and my eyelashes. And I had an excruciating case of radiation poisoning, which lasted more than a week. Basically, the radiologist killed a housefly with a stick of dynamite. He got the critter, but I've been living in the wreckage ever since. My cerebellum was on ground zero; he treated it as though it were a tumor. I have been told that I had the cerebellum of a life-long alcoholic. Although the cerebellum is not directly involved in incontinence management, because its duties center on the management of skeletal musculature, if it is injured, getting to the bathroom, or anywhere else, becomes a challenge. Basically, I have iatrogenic clumsiness, which greatly complicates diaper changing.
