As a young child, I always knew that there was something different about me compared to my siblings and friends. I was the only one in the family who had to wear "pull ups" to bed. I didn't understand why I was different. I had no idea that I could be like other kids. I thought, as my mother told me, that it would pass. I was embarrassed to go to my friends houses but I was very open about it and was always able to answer any questions that they had. I was however afraid that they would laugh at me or tell other people. I went thought a lot of different "programs" to get rid of my problem. None of them worked. I tried pills, nasal sprays, no fluids after dinner, and a restricted diet of certain fluids. They all failed and in a way made me feel like a failure also. This is where the Enuresis Treatment Center came in. When I first came into the program I was thinking that this probably wouldn't work just like all of the other treatments. As soon as I walked into the door to the office I felt welcomed. I was greeted and was given the encouragement that I needed. Through the program I learned that I had a sleeping disorder and that bedwetting is just a symptom of this disorder. The program fixed that problem and now I can say that I feel much better about myself when I go to sleepovers. I don't feel like I have to hide it anymore and I feel much better about myself.

Thank You Enuresis Treatment Center! I will never forget the way you helped me!
