Hi Kay, good to see you posting here again. I also am a solo senior woman camper and have the Van Packer kit, in part because of your previous videos. I am really enjoying it. I camp with my dog (64 lbs) so I took out the right side box so she has a place to sleep. I had a very comfortable custom sized cot mattress already so I use that instead of the supplied cushions. I keep the unit in the van all of the time so when I am not camping and the van is in daily use the mattress comes out and I put the single bottom (supplied) cushion down and then my dog has a place to ride, it is the only cushion from the original configuration that I use, the others are in my attic. As for a toileting solution, well, I keep it really simple. I only need this for the night time use. I had a bed pan from when my husband was ill so I put it in a plastic bag and put a bedpan liner in it then when the liquids make contact the liner absorbs it like a diaper does. I just take the bag off and tie it all up and dispose of in the morning. I only camp at campgrounds, usually Forest Service, so there is always a dumpster near by. It takes up very little space and suits my needs. If you haven't already, check out the FB group, "Butterfly Tribe" Women Who Camp. you may find a meet up somewhere near where you live. Keep on posting, I always enjoy your content.

Glad you didn't sell off your camper. I know I will likely face a similar situation down the road too due to the other half's health issues. Hang in there, Kay.
