Although endorsed by doctors, the tips in the book didn't come from medical professionals. That was part of Mathius Mack Gertz's problem when he was fitted with a catheter. The doctors lacked tips. There were no books or pamphlets that had information to help him get through a day. And so, he took notes-lots of notes, every day. The result is MEN AND SUPRAPUBIC CATHETER SURVIVAL TIPS: HOW TO BE A SUPERMAN WITH YOUR CATHETER. He covers topics of interest to every man with a catheter, including hooks in the bathroom, statlocks, antibiotic ointment, underwear, dressings, pants, adaptive clothing, belts, drinking, vitamins, plugs, socks, leg bags, accidents, exercise, kids, and sex. He and his publisher also agreed: When other tips come to him from readers, they will be added (with credit where credit is due) to editions that follow.
