My mom had this on her last days on Hospice, had a foley 11 days, day 5 it started turning color & by day 7 it was ‘Royal Purple’. Nothing could save her, but this would’ve been nice to know.

I thought my need for antibiotics for any catheter use no matter if it's just for a quick sample or surgery was unpleasant.

Med student here and my random fact (can’t decide if it is it a flex?) is that during clinicals I saw every color of the rainbow plus black and fecaluria…

Seeing the blood clot pass after they replaced the bulb for a client's catheter caused concern. I tried to explain the doctor had told me that would happen. Everyone freaked out anyway. 🤷♀️

I have worked in Urology for the past 10 years. I cringe when Foley patients come in with a purple bag. You can usually smell it when they walk in 🤢 Hard to get out of your nose!

The strangest color I’ve ever seen is fluorescent yellow… Kinda look like a highlighter yellow. And that was my urine right before for my gallbladder came out.
