Hi Shelly,
 
I for one only do my bowel routines on Monday & Thursday nights  beginning at 
7 PM. The reason for nights is ... if there is still some more  to come out I 
won't be in my power chair, but I'll be on some chucks in  bed.
 
Early on in Quadhood my programs where every other day, but  that got to 
crazy because I always had to figure out if I was going to miss  something 
planned 
... days, weeks or even months a head of time.
 
Now, if I were to use just a suppository or an enema. I'd have a huge delay  
in my program. So, what I do (and others) is to use senna or sennicot 8.6 mg  
pills. I take 2 and a half 10-12 hours in advance of my BR to allow for these  
pills to work on bringing my stool down in my body. I'll even take a 50 mg  
capsule of colace at the same time to keep the stool from becoming to  formed.
 
I hope this helps,

PS. Keep your chin up Shelly
