The Doctor anticipated 8-10 weeks in the body cast.  I began to utilize tubing, bottles, and other strange supplies in an attempt to develop a system that would work.  I finally came up with a solution.  My very crude, homemade Male urination problemsworked.

We had a few small leaks due to my inability to make a sealed system, but after the first time I showed my son how to use the device, he was able to urinate by himself.  Without Mom, Dad, or Nana disposing of his diaper.  Although he was still cranky and difficult, it was not compounded by his embarrassment over the bodily function of urinating.

My son successfully used my urinary system for the next 16-18 weeks.  At home he was able to urinate in the middle of the night or day without depending on anyone to help him.  We took him to the Doctors office in his reclining wheelchair.  He could push himself into the bathroom, take his device out of the bag, and urinate directly into the toilet.
