Yabu - I wash daily even if I'm on death's door

Always wash, being clean is vital to me. I nearly died 3 times, twice after too much blood loss just after giving birth both times and once when I had my appendix out. My mum helped me have a bed bath after my appendix and my partner the same after birth. They know how important it is to me.

I have looked after many dying people and always keep them clean. It's been on every single one of their advance care plans. Maybe the older generation as a whole holds it in higher importance?
