My kiddo had it a couple Christmases ago and OMG. I had to sit him on the toilet with a bowl in his lap because it was coming out both ends simultaneously and he could not control it. He was sobbing and I was sobbing and it was awful. I never had seen anything like it. I had never before or since used that much bleach in my house. I don’t know how I didn’t catch it.
