Brandon The Bedwetter Summary: Brandon has a horrible dream about the death of his dad and starts to wet the bed. Chapter 1 When Brandon was just a baby he was late getting potty trained. His mom and dad figured as long as the diapers still fit him they weren't going to bother potty training him. They decided that when he outgrew the diapers that's when they would start potty training him and since Brandon was such a small kid the size six diapers fit him just fine until he was six years old. When Brandon finally hit the age of six he had just started to outgrow the size six diapers. His parents thought it was about time they better start potty training him before he totally outgrew them. They started working with him doing all the normal potty training routines. They took him to the bathroom as often as they could and rewarded him for his efforts. But after one month of it they weren't noticing any improvements out of him. He was still being diapered all the time and was still wetting. He wasn't telling them when he had to go and it seemed that he wasn't even interested in being potty trained. Since Brandon was their first child they didn't really have any idea what they had to do to potty train a child. They continued with their efforts to try an potty train Brandon for the next three months but still saw no results. After four months of trying to potty train him, they thought they should take him to see a doctor and ask for some advice on what they should be doing. They figured that four months should be long enough for a child to start potty training. When they finally got in to see the doctor he told them that what they had done could ruin Brandon for the rest of his life. He told them that Brandon feels so secure in the diapers that he doesn't want to loose them. He told them this is why they weren't seeing any improvements in Brandon and that they should take him out of the diapers for one day and see what happens. Since Brandon is home schooled by his mom, Jennifer, they could do just what the doctor told them, to see if it would work. The next day Jennifer woke Brandon up for school and took off his wet diaper and put him in a pair of training pants. She then put a pair of plastic pants over them just in case he wet. She took him down to feed him breakfast and as he sat there and ate she noticed that Brandon wasn't acting as his usual self. She figured it was because he had just woke up. After breakfast, Jennifer went to clean him up and get him in the living room for the days lessons when she noticed that he wet his pants. She took him up to the bathroom and cleaned him up and put a pair of dry training pants on him and put him back in the plastic pants. They went downstairs and started school. While Jennifer was talking to Brandon she could tell that something was seriously wrong with him. He wasn't paying attention and had no interest in what was happening. Jennifer didn't know what to do. She called the doctor and told him what was going on and he told her it was because he wasn't diapered. He told her to put him back in a diaper and see what happened then. After she got off the phone with the doctor she took Brandon back upstairs and put him back in a diaper. They went downstairs and continued on with his schooling. She noticed a big change in Brandon after he was back in a diaper. Jennifer didn't know what they had gotten themselves into and how they were going to get Brandon out of diapers. Soon after Brandon's seventh birthday they were finally able to get him out of diapers for good. Brandon was sleeping through the night and waking up with dry sheets. His parents were very proud of him and themselves for finally accomplishing potty training. Chapter 2 Brandon is now twelve and has been out of diapers for five years and hasn't had one accident. Shortly after his eighth birthday, his dad passed away in a car accident. His mom feel into a deep depression and wasn't able to home school him anymore so he had to start attending public school. Brandon really liked public school because there was so much more to do there then when his mom used to home school him and he really loved all the friends he was meeting. His best friend, Tommy Miller, who has been his friend all his life, started going to public school at the same time as Brandon, after Brandon began bragging about how much fun it was. Tommy's mom wasn't too sure about sending her son to public school but sent him anyway, because she knew it would make him happy, and he would get to be with his best friend. They entered school midway through the season and were put in two different classes. The school didn't like having friends in the same class as they may cause trouble when they're together. After she came out of her depression, Jennifer took a part-time job as a secretary at one of the local law offices. She doesn't get home till after five o'clock so Brandon goes over to Tommy's house until she gets home. When Jennifer got to Tommy's house to pick up Brandon she informed him that she would have to go out of town this weekend and that he would be staying at Tommy's house all weekend. Brandon and Tommy both got real excited at that news. They were going to have a blast. That weekend Jennifer left on her business trip and after school Brandon went over to Tommy's house to begin their weekend. They were up in Tommy's room playing video games and listening to music having a great time. As the night wore on the boys started to get tired so they started getting ready for bed. As they were getting ready for bed Brandon noticed that he had forgotten to pack his pajamas. Since Brandon and Tommy are about the same size Tommy let him borrow one of his pairs of pajamas and they could get his in the morning. Tommy told Brandon that he could sleep in his bed with him so he didn't have to sleep on the floor. Tommy always hated sleeping on the floor so he didn't want to make Brandon do it, either. Brandon crawled in his bed and before long he was drifting off to sleep. Just as he drifted off to sleep, Brandon began dreaming about the car accident that killed his father. A week ago he had over heard his mom and grandmother talking about the accident and it disturbed him every since. Brandon saw his dad driving down the road with a car following close behind. It was a bright sunny dad and there weren't any other cars on the road. His dad, John, was always a cautious driver and never drove over the speed limit. The car behind him was getting angry at his slow speed and started looking to pull out and pass him. Just as they were coming up to a hill the car pulled out and sped around. As the car approached the top of the hill there was a semi truck coming from the other direction. John was still too close for the car to pull back in. He hit the breaks and turned the steering wheel into oncoming traffic. The car began to barrel roll back down the hill. Just then the semi truck smashed into John's car, killing him instantly. The dream played over and over in his head, each time slowing down, and making him relive the death of his dad. Brandon woke up in a cold sweat, his heart beating fast. He sat up and looked out the window. It was morning. He kept thinking about the dream he had as he looked out the window. He tried to think about something else but it just kept playing over and over in his head. Brandon lay back down, trying desperately to think of something else. As he laid down he felt something cold and wet touch his pajamas. He rolled over and looked behind him. The bed was wet. Brandon felt around the whole bed and it was all wet even the area where Tommy was sleeping. He didn't know what had happened. He looked down at the front of his pajamas and they were all wet. It suddenly hit him that he had wet the bed. Brandon didn't know what he was going to do. What would Tommy think when he woke up and found his bed wet? he thought. He got out of bed and quietly walked toward the door. He opened it and peeked out. No one around. He quickly walked toward the bathroom. Just as he was about to walk in the bathroom, Tommy's mom, Brenda stopped him to tell him good morning. Brandon said good morning and quickly ran for the bathroom. Brenda figured he must really have to go to the bathroom. When he got to the bathroom the door was locked. What was he gonna do now? He thought. He suddenly remembered there was another bathroom downstairs. He took off toward the stairs hoping no one would see him. He got almost all the way to the bathroom when Brenda stopped him again. She was standing right behind him when Brandon reached for the door. It was locked, too. Brenda has six kids and a husband and they were using the bathroom. Brandon wished he was home where it was just him and his mom, then he could go in the bathroom. He stood there facing the bathroom door not wanting to turn around and face Brenda. He tried the door again desperate to get in. Brenda told him that her husband was in there taking a shower and would be awhile. Brandon felt his heart start beating faster and faster as he ran out of options. His only other option was to face Brenda. He turned around and when he did Brenda immediately noticed his wet pajamas. Chapter 3 There he stood in his best friends house, in front of his best friends mom with wet pajamas on. Brandon felt himself start to shake as Brenda looked at him. She asked him what happened but Brandon couldn't speak. He felt to embarrassed to even look Brenda in the eye. Brenda brought him into her arms and hugged him as he started to cry and tell Brenda about the dream he had had. She comforted him and told him everything would be okay and told him to go and put some dry clothes on. He headed back up to Tommy's room hoping not to see any of the other kids so he could avoid the ridicule. As he walked in the room, Tommy was standing, looking over his bed, wondering how it got all wet. He turned around and saw Brandon standing in front of him with wet pajamas on. Brandon just stood and stared at him, not knowing what to say. Tommy came over to him, gave him a hug, and told him everything would be alright. Brandon started to feel better as he pulled off the wet pajamas and got into some dry clothes. The next night, Brandon told Tommy he would sleep on the floor incase he wet the bed again, but Tommy told him he could sleep in his bed cause the sheets would wash. Brandon crawled in bed next to Tommy and laid as far away from him as he could. Tommy told him it was alright and he shouldn't worry about wetting the bed, and pulled him further on the bed. Brandon lay there, not able to sleep, thinking about the dream, and worrying about wetting the bed. He stared at the clock for three hours before he finally fell asleep. As he did, the dream began playing over in his head again, and the next morning, Brandon woke up with wet pajamas. He woke up before Tommy did and got up and changed his clothes. He took the wet pajamas down to the laundry room and threw them in the hamper with the ones from the night before. When he came back up, Brenda was sitting at the kitchen table drinking a cup of coffee. She pulled the chair out next to her and Brandon sat down. She asked him if he had wet the bed again and he told her that he had. She told him that what he was going through was normal for a kid in his situation and that he shouldn't worry about it too much. After breakfast, Jennifer came to pick Brandon up to take him home. Brenda didn't tell her about Brandon's wetting cause she didn't think it was that important. That night, Brandon felt much better being in his own bed. If he wet, it would be his own bed, and he would be able to take care of the problem before his mom found out. He took a shower, brushed his teeth, and put his pajamas on, and was now ready for bed. He started to get nervous about going to sleep cause he knew he was going to have the dream again. He lay in bed wide awake, thinking about the dream, and wetting the bed for two hours. As the second hour passed he was finally able to get his mind off the dream and onto something else and was able to fall asleep, but like the past two nights he had the dream and woke up with a wet bed. The next morning he woke up twenty minutes before his mom did. He took his pajamas and the sheets off his bed down to the washer. As they were washing, he jumped in the shower and got all clean just in time for his mom to wake up. Brandon began worrying that the dream would never pass and he would wake up with a wet bed for the rest of his life. His mom went out to run some errands, leaving Brandon home alone. He got the sheets out of the dryer and put them back on his bed before his mom noticed. For the next week, he had the dream every night, and every morning he woke up with wet sheets. He set his alarm clock so he could get up in time to wash his sheets and have them dry and back on his bed before his mom woke up. After the third night of wetting the bed, Jennifer started to get suspicious, after she started smelling a strong order coming from his room. Brandon could take his sheets and wash them, but there wasn't nothing he could do about the wet mattress and it began giving off a strong odor. At first she didn't say anything to him. She just thought he had an accident and that was that. While he was at school she took the mattress outside and let it dry out. The next day she walked by his room and she smelled the odor again. She walked in the room and felt the sheets and they were dry. She lifted up the sheets and felt the mattress and it was wet. She started to get worried that Brandon had developed a wetting problem and decided to confront him about it. When Brandon got home from school he ran upstairs without saying hello to his mom and closed and locked the door. Jennifer went up and knocked on the door to see if anything was wrong. Brandon wouldn't let her in the room, so she knew something was wrong. She kept knocking on the door until Brandon finally got annoyed and opened the door. Jennifer walked in the room and Brandon was standing, looking toward his bed. She walked over to him and put her hand on his shoulder and asked him if everything was alright. He told her it was but Jennifer wasn't convinced. She asked him a few more questions but didn't get the answers she wanted. She hesitated for a minute and then finally broke down and asked Brandon if he had been wetting the bed. He turned around to face his mom and when he did, Jennifer saw the wet pants he was wearing. She now knew why he didn't want her to come in the room. He was trying to change his clothes. Jennifer sat down on the bed and patted the seat next to her and Brandon sat down. She asked him what was going on and he told her all about the dream and how he had been having wetting accidents. She got a little worried, but didn't want him to know that, so she told him everything would be ok, and that they could get him a plastic sheet for his bed to protect the mattress. Brandon felt a lot better now that his mom knew about his wetting problem. He was hoping that since he had talked to her about the dream it would go away. But that night he had the dream again and woke up with a wet bed. Jennifer came in the room the next morning to wake him up and to see if he had wet the bed. As soon as she opened the door she was hit with the strong odor that began to burn her eyes as she walked over toward the bed. She shook Brandon awake and when he rolled over she saw his wet pajamas. She got upset that the problem didn't go away, but figured it wasn't his fault. She got him up and Brandon took a shower while Jennifer washed the sheets. She was relieved that she had bought him the plastic sheet so she wouldn't have to air out the mattress. For the next week, Jennifer went in every morning to wake Brandon up, hoping he would have dry sheets, but every morning, they were wet. She began to get worried that the problem was never going to end. She suggested to Brandon that he go see a physiatrist but he told her he didn't want to do that. After a bit of persuading she finally talked him into it, and she made him an appointment. Brandon went in to see the physiatrist, and she told him that the problem he was having was due to the story he heard from his mom and grandma. After six sessions of seeing the physiatrist Brandon was still wetting the bed, so he and Jennifer decided that it wasn't working and stopped attending their appointments. They were both convinced that he was going to bed wetting the bed for the rest of his life so Jennifer made a suggestion to him. She suggested that they go to the store and buy him some adult diapers so he could wear at night. Brandon didn't like the idea at first, but when Jennifer told him it would help keep his sheets dry, he was all for the idea. They went down to the local pharmacy and picked up a bag of youth diapers. When they got home, Brandon went up to his room and put one of the diapers on to see how they felt. When he got the diaper on, he started to feel, safe and secure, and began thinking about his younger days when he wore diapers. As he stood there and thought about his younger days, he started to wet his diaper. He looked down when he felt the diaper start to get wet. What had just happened? He thought. He ran downstairs and told his mom what had just happened and she told him that everything would be alright. That night after he had his shower and brushed his teeth, Brandon went to his room and began getting ready for bed. He put his pajamas on and then realized that he was suppose to wear a diaper. He took his pants down and got a diaper and put it on. He laid in bed with the diaper on thinking about how safe and secure he felt. He felt himself start to get an erection as he drifted off to sleep. The next morning, Brandon woke up and his sheets were dry. He was proud of himself for not wetting the bed. He pulled off his pajamas bottoms and realized he was wearing a diaper and it was all wet. He ran downstairs with the diaper and pajama top on and told his mom that the diaper had kept his bed dry. She was happy for him and Brandon went back upstairs and got ready for school. Chapter 4 Brandon sat in class listening to the teacher lecture them about history. He loved history and was enjoying what the teacher was talking about. He was getting involved in the discussion and knew most of the answers to the questions the teacher was asking. As he sat there listening to the teacher Brandon suddenly felt something wet running down his leg. He felt the front of his pants and they were all wet. He looked down and there was a wet streak running down his pants. He didn't know what he was gonna do. He sat there and tried to pay attention to what the teacher was talking about, thinking about how he was gonna get out of this situation. The teacher asked a question and no one in the room raised their hand. Brandon was hoping the teacher wouldn't call on him, but she did. Brandon sat at his desk and started to answer the question but the teacher told him to stand up so everyone in the room could hear him. Brandon hesitated and the teacher told him again to stand up. He hesitated again, but got up, holding his jacket in his lap. But it didn't do him no good, everyone could see the wet spot running down his leg. He stood there and looked around the room as everyone stared at him. He looked at the teacher but the teacher didn't say anything. Brandon answered the question, hoping everyone would avert their attention from him. The teacher told him the answer he gave was right and then excused him to the bathroom. Brandon grabbed his backpack and ran for the bathroom, being told twice to walk in the halls. When he got to the bathroom there was another boy in there just finishing up. The boy stared at him as he walked in but didn't say anything to him. Brandon ran in the stall and sat down on the toilet thinking about what he was going to do. As he thought, he suddenly remembered the diaper he had stuck in his backpack this morning. He remembered the wetting accident he had last night and put the diaper in his backpack just incase it happened again. He started wishing he had had the diaper on before so he wouldn't be sitting here now with wet pants on wondering how to get out of school without being ridiculed. He pulled the diaper out of his backpack and put it on under his wet pants. He then walked out of the bathroom and went to the office and told them he was sick. They called his mom and Jennifer came to pick him up, noticing his wet pants. She took him home and Brandon immediately ran up to his room and changed his clothes being sure to put a diaper on under his pants this time. He went back downstairs after he was changed and sat down on the couch and talked to his mom. He told her about how he had wet his pants in history class and how the teacher excused him to the bathroom and how he put the diaper on and told the office he was sick when he really wasn't. Jennifer wasn't made at him for lying to the office, but was worried that he had started to develop a wetting problem during the day now. The next day Jennifer made an appointment for Brandon to go in an see their family doctor to see why Brandon was having the wetting problems. The doctor told them that Brandon is probably psychologically thinking about the time when he used to wear diapers when he was older and is wetting during the day because he wants to be back at that time in his life. As they were walking out of the doctors office Brandon felt his pants start to get wet. Jennifer looked over at him and they both became upset. When they got home, Brandon went up to his room and changed his clothes and put a diaper on. He started to feel very safe and secure wearing the diaper and again started to form an erection. He walked downstairs, wearing just the diaper, and Jennifer looked at him and shrugged and told him it was what he had to do. Brandon started wearing the diapers all the time. When he first started wearing them to school he was nervous, but after awhile he got used to wearing them when he figured out that no one could tell that he was diapered. He grew to love wearing the diapers and wets them unconsciously every day and night. THE END
