Chapter 304: Rocho Travels the Northern Land - Prologue

An exaggerated title as usual.
Rocho was at Haneda Airport Terminal 2.

My children are long since adults, and my father, who required nursing care, passed away a few years ago.

My spouse also retired around the same time, so we have time.
We are in the fortunate position of wanting to travel while we are still physically able.

I have time before boarding the plane.
I thought I would do the customary report on the ostomate toilets, but as expected of Japan's main gateway, there was detailed toilet information available.
When I looked, it seemed that barrier-free toilets are always provided as a set with the regular toilets.
Moreover, they all without exception include ostomate-compatible toilets.

Perhaps this has the highest number of ostomate toilets per square meter in Japan?
I have no intention of checking, though.

It seems that when a plane reaches cruising altitude, the air pressure drops, causing the air inside the stoma pouch (the bag that collects waste) worn by ostomates to expand.
It would be a disaster if the contents leaked because of that.
Therefore, I want to clear the contents of the pouch before boarding.

Also, people like me who have had their artificial anus closed and suffer from defecation disorders can feel at ease.
In the case of an airport, there are times when you have time before boarding.
Since Rocho ACT3 only lasts 10 minutes once I feel the urge to defecate, having many toilets is reassuring.

For those who need barrier-free toilets, I think it is safe to say that this is definitely a facility that can be used with peace of mind.

I am going to Hokkaido now, so I must be careful not to overeat and get diarrhea.
