Helping parents and kids find freedom from soiling

The Digest Quest story starts with our daughter and her struggles with childhood constipation and the resulting incontinence. What was at one time an inconvenience for our family and our small, home based daycare provider, became a source of embarrassment once she started school. Because she never knew when she would have an accident, often times that accident happened at school. Fortunately, it was rare that the soiling was noticeable to her classmates, but it was still embarrassing for her. We always had to make sure she had a change of clothes and we had to get her teachers involved in helping her. As parents, we got more and more discouraged. 

If you have found your way to this site, we know you have struggled, like us, with putting all the pieces together. Endless trips to doctors and therapists often led us to countless requests for tracking every aspect of our child's diet and bathroom regimen. 

Quite frankly, it was exhausting. As we struggled to meet the normal demands of raising our kids, we more often than not failed at accurately tracking the long list of variables. Most days we were happy they had their shoes on when they left the house. Knowing how much fiber they had consumed, umm, yeah, we had no clue. 

We knew there had to be an easier way to compile the data that our doctors requested. From those failures, Digest Quest was both. We don't support one technique over another or argue for or against one method. Those are discussions for another message board. But we do hope the information on this site, and especially our Digest Quest App, can support you on your path to a happier home and a healthier child.
