My wife & I, & OCC.

This topic is about the playful idea of "Obsessive-Compulsive Cleaning" (OCC), which is a lighthearted twist on the term OCD, used to describe a very thorough approach to cleaning. The focus here is on how this concept applies to both keeping a home spotless and maintaining excellent stoma hygiene. The main point is that being diligent about cleanliness, especially when it comes to stoma care, is not just about being overly cautious—it's a smart way to prevent health issues and avoid unpleasant situations.

Here are some helpful insights and advice shared by others:

1. Many people agree that being meticulous, or even "obsessive," about cleaning the bathroom and stoma area is a practical way to control odors and prevent accidents.

2. One person humorously mentions that they clean their bathroom floor so often it feels like they're swabbing the deck of a Navy ship, highlighting the importance and practicality of regular hygiene maintenance.
