Stand up toilet for women
September 19, 2019 in Challenge
My daughter 23 has Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressivia a very rare condition where bone grows on muscles tendons . Her hips are locked where bone has grown. She needs a stand up toilet as she cannot sit. It would need to be something that she could perhaps lean back on . To find out more about this condition please go to fopfriends.com and attached What is FOP leaflet

Maria, this won’t help with bowel movements, but women hikers have used something like this to allow them to stand up to pee in the woods.

What about something similar to a camping toilet but taller. I am not a designer, just a thought.
