A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
In my own observation of Cass, I am pretty certain that there is no hidden anatomic abnormality in her urinary tract. The urology surgeon that she is seeing suspects that Cass may be having a hidden duplex kidney on her left kidney (the good kidney) or a hidden triplex kidney on her right duplex kidney….
From soaking a 42cm long pad with wings up to the panty after only just 20 minutes, Cass can now hold her urine for over an hour! I am so proud of achievement. She is setting the target for herself. Everyday, she diligently sets the alarm to an hour. The moment the alarm rings, she…

We brought Cass to see a Professor at UMSC (University Malaya Specialist Centre) yesterday for a second opinion on her urine leakage problem. The Professor did a quick non-invasive test on her to see the extent of the urine leakage. He asked Cass to cough and pressed her abdomen to see if there is any…
